CHHATTISGARH Chief Minister Vishnu Deo Sai on Saturday laid the foundation of the nation's first artificial intelligence (AI)-based Data Centre Park that will come up on 14 acres of land in new capital city Nava Raipur.
"This is not going to be just a data centre; it's the digital backbone for a new era of growth and empowerment. It's a transformational and a momentous move to meet India's ambitions to become a global digital powerhouse," CM Sai said.
The data centre has been designed with a focus on environment protection. It will follow green and energy-efficient technologies, officials said.
Operated by RackBank Datacenters Private Limited, it will include a 2.7-hectare area developed as a Special Economic Zone (SEZ). "The first phase will begin with a capacity of 5 megawatts to be expanded up to 150 megawatts. An investment of approximately ₹2,000 crore is anticipated in the future," an official said.
