Chief Minister Dr. Mohan Yadav declared on Wednesday that Madhya Pradesh is on the verge of becoming a hub for the Information Technology revolution. He announced that significant players in the IT, ITeS (Information Technology Enabled Services), and ESDM (Electronic System Design and Manufacturing) sectors will participate in the Global Investors Summit (GIS-2025) taking place on February 24-25 in Bhopal, which is set to elevate the state’s position in the tech landscape.

Dr. Yadav emphasized that information technology is now a critical component across all sectors, rather than merely a standalone industry. He highlighted the essential role of IT in various fields, including healthcare, agriculture, education, and manufacturing.

The Chief Minister noted that Madhya Pradesh is at the forefront of this digital transformation, with its robust digital infrastructure, flourishing startups, and innovative technologies paving the way for new opportunities.

He pointed out that the state’s IT and ESDM policies, along with the establishment of data center parks, IT parks, and incubators, have established Madhya Pradesh as a prime destination for technology investments. Cities such as Indore, Bhopal, Jabalpur, and Gwalior are emerging as key centers for IT companies, with leading firms including TCS, Infosys, Yash Technologies, and Impetus already setting up operations in the region.

Dr. Yadav reported that Madhya Pradesh is embracing advanced technologies in alignment with the Digital India Mission, taking the lead in areas such as Artificial Intelligence (AI), Machine Learning (ML), Big Data, Blockchain, and Cybersecurity. These advancements are not only transforming the IT sector but also revolutionizing manufacturing, healthcare, logistics, and agri-tech.

The state currently hosts 15 IT parks and 5 IT Special Economic Zones (SEZs), with several exciting projects on the horizon, including Crystal IT Park 3 and 4 in Indore, a 50-acre Data Center Park, and a 100,000 sq ft IT Tower in Jabalpur.

The Chief Minister expressed optimism that these initiatives will significantly accelerate Madhya Pradesh’s digital advancement. He noted that with affordable operational costs, strong government backing, and a high quality of life, the state is becoming an attractive destination for startups and IT companies.

National: One year after the deadly terror attack in Pahalgam, the nation remembers the 26 people who lost their lives. The attack took place on April 22 at Baisaran, a popular tourist spot.

At first, reports said only five people were injured. Later, it became clear that it was one of the worst terror attacks in the region in decades. Terrorists came out of the forest and opened fire on tourists.

Survivors said the attackers separated men from women and children. They then shot the men at close range. Many victims were reportedly targeted after being asked about their religion.

A heartbreaking image of Himanshi Narwal sitting beside her husband’s body became a symbol of the tragedy. Her husband, a naval officer, was among those killed.

The group The Resistance front, linked to Lashkar-e-Taiba, claimed responsibility. The case was investigated by the National Investigation Agency.

After months of tracking, security forces launched Operation Mahadev. On July 28, 2025, all three terrorists were killed after a long search operation.

The attack remains a painful memory and a reminder of the need for strong security.
