Great initiative. But the real test will be in execution. We need to ensure stable high-speed internet, reliable power, and most importantly, industry-academia partnerships with local colleges like IIT BHU and MMMUT. Let's hope it's not just another building.

As someone who works in the startup space, this is very encouraging. The focus on emerging tech like AI and Blockchain is spot on. Hope they provide robust mentorship and funding access, not just infrastructure. The success of such parks in Hyderabad and Pune can be a blueprint.

Finally! My hometown gets a major tech institution. This will stop the brain drain for sure. Parents won't have to send their kids to Pune or Bangalore now. Big step for Purvanchal. 😊

Good move. But I hope the benefits reach everyone. Often these parks become enclaves for a select few. There should be clear policies to include local entrepreneurs and MSMEs, not just attract big outside companies. Inclusive growth is key.
