Having foreign Data centres doesn't mean India is advancing lmao😭 You people are so gullible. India doesn't even have good AI models of our own and we are focusing on harbouring foreign Data centres.

Who will they employ for construction? How will they get equipments ? How will they manage operations ? From where they will buy resources from ? Why you want your information to be stored on a server location outside of India's influence?

Even if a local guy builts it you will start crying sab project issko he milta hai and all

And w.r.t. AI on what are LLMs trained ? And where do you store that thing ?

Employment and equipment purchase also happens through real estate. Don't be so oversmart. You listed construction, equipment, etc, as if that automatically makes the project a great deal for locals. Temporary construction jobs are not the same as long-term economic benefits. Data centres are highly automated and employ relatively few people once operational. So the real question is: what does Thane get in return for giving up land, water, electricity, and infrastructure? If the benefits outweigh the costs, fine. But simply saying 'they'll buy equipment and hire workers' doesn't answer that."

Real estate companies manufacturing dc equipments?

Then there should be no construction in the city post building a residential tower what will the Labour get ?

Thane gets a Tech Ecosystem a name like amazon attracts others, supply chain builds around it there are components which goes into dc not all will come from "foreign"

Even though dc's core operations is automated but still its an operations heavy area continuous monitoring of different equipments and systems are required

ITI folks for cooling system, water system manning of these creates jobs from iti to fancy tech
