Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister Chandra Babu Naidu in his previous regime is instrumental for putting Hyderabad on IT map of the World. The city as a result of his efforts became one of the top IT hubs in the country and even the World. Now in the wake of State bifurcation, AP people expect the repeat of performance from Chandra Babu as far as IT industry is concerned. Vizag already houses IT firms such as Tech Mahindra, IBM Kenexa, Wipro and ITeS companies such as HSBC, WNS with IT exports up to 1450 Crores.
While it is almost confirmed that the new state capital will be some where between Vijayawada and Guntur, IT industry experts say Vizag will still be the best IT destination since there is already infrastructure in place to cater the industry needs. All it needs is the upgradation of existing domestic airport in to international airport. Also this idea will fit in Chandra Babu’s vision of development decentralization.
