Chhattisgarh, the state that is the vanguard of India's industries and iron and steel plants has plenty to speak of. To add another feather to its already brimming cap, the city's capital is being relocated to the upcoming Naya Raipur, an ultra modern world-class city that is modeled after Kuala Lumpur.
The proposed city is cited to possess the best of both worlds thereby meaning that it will be an idyllic amalgam of state of the art architecture and modern grid patterned city with traces of the quintessential Chhattisgarh culture. Juxtaposed between the National Highways numbered 6 and 43, the imminent capital is separated from the current capital Raipur by the Mana airport.
Naya Raipur is supposedly the next big planned city in India after Bhubaneshwar, Ahmedabad and Chandigarh. Around 2400 hectares of land has already been acquirement for setting up the new city. Another unique and rather interesting feature of this new and upcoming city is that unlike India's other planned cities, the Chhattisgarh government and not any celebrated international architect are doing the planning and blueprinting of Naya Raipur.
The basic outline of Naya Raipur is being devised with the aid of the School of Planning and Architecture, New Delhi and the City and Infrastructure Development Corporation, Navi Mumbai. The new city is supposed to house the steel and glass Information Technology powerhouses, a dazzling jewelry mansion, convention centers, sprawling parks and sylvan lakes as well as residential complexes and townships resembling a city within a city. All this of course will be supported by an excellent infrastructure of road and transport network, water and electricity supply.
