As part of the state’s push to develop its IT and semiconductor sectors, the Chhattisgarh government also signed Memorandum of Understanding (MoUs) with NASSCOM, the India Electronics and Semiconductor Association (IESA), and TiE Bangalore to boost IT, startups, and semiconductor industries while generating employment opportunities.
“Raipur, the state capital, is already home to prestigious institutions such as IIT, NIT, AIIMS, and IIIT, which are producing skilled professionals. To further boost employability, our government plans to sign skilling contracts with colleges, providing industry-relevant training to students and preparing them for high-growth sectors like IT, semiconductors, and manufacturing,” Deo Sai said.
“Chhattisgarh has also streamlined its business policies to reduce bureaucratic delays and simplify industrial processes,” Deo Sai said, noting key reforms such as digitized land allotment systems and online transactions, faster approvals, including GST registration reduced from 25 days to 3 days and electricity connections from 28 days to 7 days, simplified industrial registration, reducing required form fields from 168 to 38 and 24-hour operational approvals for businesses employing both men and women
