In re: Challenge to environmental clearance for Vizag data centre project

Petitions are pending before the National Green Tribunal and the Andhra Pradesh High Court challenging the environmental clearance granted to a Vizag hyperscale data centre project due to concerns over water and power consumption. On 16 October 2026, the National Green Tribunal requested the Central government's response to the plea. On 17 October 2026, the Andhra Pradesh High Court declined to issue an interim stay on the project's construction, allowing Vizag Hyperscale Data Centre Park Limited to proceed at its own risk.
