Chhattisgarh is positioning itself as a key pharmaceutical hub in central India, with the Naya Raipur Atal Nagar Development Authority allocating 141.84 acres of land in Sector-22 for the establishment of a pharmaceutical park. The Chhattisgarh State Industrial Development Corporation (CSIDC) has been granted the land to develop this initiative.
According to state representatives, the development of this park is part of a broader strategy to strengthen healthcare services and improve accessibility for citizens. The park will feature research and development centres and testing laboratories, along with a flatted factory complex and a common effluent treatment plant (CETP).
“Through this park, we aim to meet the growing demand for healthcare products both domestically and internationally,” a state government spokesperson said.
The state government offers 100% investment promotion on capital investments for large-scale pharmaceutical enterprises, including reimbursements for SGST, aimed at making the park an attractive destination for both domestic and international investors.
The government anticipates that the pharmaceutical park will attract both domestic and international investments, increase competition in the sector, create jobs for local youth, and stimulate economic growth in the state.
Additionally, Chhattisgarh’s Shaheed Veer Narayan Singh Ayushman Health Scheme provides free treatment to 77.20 lakh families in the state, which will be expanded to cover Rs 10 lakh in the future, the government spokesperson said.
