The Indian Institute of Technology, Delhi (IIT-D) is expanding its campus in Haryana’s Jhajjar and Sonepat. In a written response in the Parliament’s winter session, Subhas Sarkar, the Minister of State in the Ministry of Education said that the project is being implemented in phases.

At the IIT Delhi (Sonipat) campus, presently, two facilities viz IIT Delhi Technopark (I-TEC) and Central Research Facility (CRF) are fully functional. Also, a High Capacity Computing (HPC) facility for Artificial Intelligence (AI) with a data centre is being established with the help of the National Supercomputing Mission (NSM), Sarkar added.

In addition to this, to strengthen and augment the existing research-relevant infrastructure, a new building under ‘Sophisticated Analytical & Technical Help Institutes (SATHI)’ scheme is being built adjacent to the CRF building, he said.
