Green Visakha, an environmental non-governmental organisation, on Thursday demanded cancellation of all permissions for AI data centres in Visakhapatnam and Anakapalli districts and a halt to construction at Tarluvada and Adavivaram. The demand came a day after it held a rally in the city on the first anniversary of the State government’s Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Google for an AI hub in Visakhapatnam.

The MoU, signed on October 14, 2025, provides for an investment of $15 billion, with AdaniConneX as a partner.
