🔸 PETITION & ALARMING UPDATES CONCERNING AUROVILLE PROPERTIES!🔸
Dear Auroville community,
We have since learnt that the Secretary and the Governing Board appointed Land Committee are intent on exchanging and/or selling all the lands that are not included in the Aurovilian drafted Master Plan of 1999.
Please find the letter from the AVFO officer on special duty (OSD) Dr G Seetharaman regarding planned land exchange which effectively includes all communities, farms, forests situated outside the MP area.

Please also refer to the Mother's sketch dated June 1965 of Auroville that includes an area from lake Ousuddu or Oustery to the sea.

If Aurovilians withdraw their support these actions would not be possible.
Please sign the petition regarding the opaque and unauthorised actions by the AVFO FAMC and misuse of Auroville's community assets, community funds, maintenance allotment and policy agreements.
Please read and sign this petition.
So far we have collected nearly 500 signatures.
Let's reach out to another 100+ people and get the maximum of people to sign, please share this petition link (https://forms.gle/6V6Q2XAV9oZjjPf66) with your friends and neighbours.
Remember your name will not be shared. After the verification process the RA WCom will be requested to send the petition document with the number of the signatories to the AVFO FAMC and other concerned parties.
In these highly challenging times for our participatory governance, we can still use our voice through this petition to stand up for a free, fair and harmonious Auroville.
Tentative closing date of this petiton is 5th January 2024.
