The Bhabha Atomic Research Centre (BARC) is set to establish a 3,000 Acres Research and Development (R&D) campus in Andhra Pradesh’s Anakapalli district. The site is located near Visakhapatnam and will serve as a major hub for advanced nuclear research.
BARC has approached the Andhra Pradesh Government for the diversion of an anticipated 148.15 Hectares (Ha) of forest land adjoining already acquired revenue land. The proposal was reviewed by the Expert Appraisal Committee (EAC) under the Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change. Moreover, the EAC has recommended in‑principle approval for the land diversion.

Over 1,200 Ha of revenue land has already been acquired for the project. The BARC R&D campus is a strategic initiative of the Central Government, and therefore, the Detailed Project Report (DPR) remains protected from disclosure. Meanwhile, the proposal includes the construction of a perimeter compound wall, zonal security fencing, patrolling roads, a pump house, watch towers, drains, service lines, and area development works.
The new campus will further support multidisciplinary research. It will strengthen India’s capabilities in nuclear science, energy, health, agriculture, and strategic technologies. The facility will also host laboratories, testing units, and specialised infrastructure required for long‑term scientific programmes.
