The Chhattisgarh government has unveiled a plan to transform Raipur and its neighboring urban clusters into the State Capital Region (SCR). This initiative aims to make the area a central hub for trade, commerce, and industry, serving as a major growth engine for the state. Under this comprehensive development plan, Raipur, Durg-Bhilai, and Nava Raipur Atal Nagar will be integrated into one cohesive region.
Spearheaded by Chief Minister Vishnu Deo Sai, the project aims to create a thriving ecosystem for business, education, and healthcare. An official bill has been passed to establish the SCR, predicting a population of over 50 lakh by 2031. The Capital Region Development Authority (CRDA), led by the Chief Minister, will oversee urban planning and economic growth. A substantial budget allocation will support infrastructure investment and feasibility studies.
