The foundation stone for the Dr Shyama Prasad Mukherjee Smart Industrial Park was laid in Bhopal, Madhya Pradesh, by Chief Minister Dr Mohan Yadav. Spread across approximately 173 acres, the industrial park is designed to promote advanced manufacturing through modern IT and AI-based infrastructure. Developed under the ‘work-live-grow’ model, it will support sectors such as garments, toys, information technology, and artificial intelligence. The project is expected to generate more than 15,000 direct and indirect jobs and includes a large convention centre to host investor summits and industrial exhibitions, strengthening Bhopal's industrial ecosystem.
