Modi ally Chandrababu Naidu said Alphabet's planned $15 billion Google AI data center in Andhra Pradesh is expected to begin operations in 2028. The state has pledged uninterrupted power and water and is assessing measures to meet the project's energy needs. The investment, which includes data centers and a subsea cable system, is Alphabet's largest bet in India and central to the state's tech-hub plans; Blackstone has also announced new local data-centre investments. The project faces opposition from residents and environmental groups over potential water shortages and power constraints.
