RBI Data Centre: Prime Minister Narendra Modi inaugurated the Reserve Bank of India’s Data Centre and Cybersecurity Training Institute at Info Valley-II in Jatni, near Bhubaneswar, today. Prime Minister Modi arrived in Odisha’s capital after completing his visit to Varanasi in Uttar Pradesh. He was welcomed by Governor Braj Mohan Ram, Chief Minister Mohan Charan Majhi and other dignitaries at the Jatni helipad.
Built at an estimated cost of around 170 crore rupees, the data centre is expected to strengthen the security of critical financial data and enhance the resilience of India’s digital financial infrastructure. It will support mission-critical systems, including payment and settlement operations of the Reserve Bank.
The accompanying Cybersecurity Training Institute will provide specialised training and promote research in cybersecurity, enterprise computing and emerging technologies such as Artificial Intelligence and quantum computing. The facility is expected to strengthen the RBI’s technological capabilities and contribute to the security, reliability and resilience of the country’s rapidly expanding digital financial ecosystem.
