Thanks for putting this out in the public. We have been coming to Ashram and AUroville for decades in our family. All this is very sad to hear. We are only now hearing about Land exchanges, wish this information was made known earlier
Thank you guys for uploading this video 🙏 good initiative 👏 still today many people are not really aware of what's going on in Auroville..Hope this will reach out people and will get the community support💪.. Super Bharathi Bro🔥
Three month later - as I now see this discussion - I wonder where is the blog, etc where I can read of some fair and over arching characterization of what has transpired? Is it too hard to say yet? What are the principle and salient points? Who could be speaking competently about todays situations at Auroville? Thanks folks - for your direction and helpful communications. 💚
Our Dear Divine mother, shall start working to make her dream stay and continue as it should be. Call Mother to work on it. Just call her and see it is done, in the most fantastic miraculous way.
The center of Auroville is in danger due to ~60 acres of missing plots. 56 years after trying but failing to buy it is high time to obtain them differently, through land exchange. Navajata appointed by the Mother long ago bought lands far away as they were cheapest and could be used later for exchange. Many resident caretakers of these unregulated plots got so attached that they don't want to move to AV center now. Are we just the same as anywhere else in the world?
The whole point of why the City of Auroville has never been build earlier is because : there has never been the money to build it. You cannot build the city from donations. Today, with the GoI's representative, the Secretary and the GB, we see the same fact : there is no money. There is no real money to buy new land. Hence, for them : the clumsy decision to exchange precious parts of Auroville land for new land. Yes, today, land has become extremely expensive, that is why you need real money to buy it. Do not pretend to want to build the City if you do not have the real means for it. Aurovilians have to come together on this as AV cannot be build in a hurry with a clumsy management in charge.
This script was being written way back, at least 25 years back, when foundation would make it difficult to some aurovillians to come back to their communities and would grab that property....nobody said anything for long time but iguess now water has come above the head....
The former BJP-PM Modi government has "nationalised" and politicised Auroville since July 2021 and has made it one of its pet projects. This goes straight against the Charter of Auroville. With the recent national elections the BJP has weakened in power and it would be good for AV to see with Indian National Congress, the Congress Party, whether they would be interested to look into the current mismanagement of Auroville where Aurovilians have fully lost their input in the decision making process of all vital issues. The Indian National Congress could be able to address this as a government issue. Auroville and Aurovilians have the full right to get involved politically, not for power but to equalise the powers of RA, GB and the AVFO.
@@umesh4040 I do not know about thousands of families but no one should be forgotten who gave land to Auroville for free, they rather should be honoured.

So sad to know this. Greed is destroying our world. I have visited Auroville twice and I admire what has been done there.
I’m in Auroville and just as I thought there’s hope for humanity I see this!

I am sure BJP is proud of you 🙂
Power to the Residents Assembly! We must all come together NOW!
I'm with you...
Please we should act!!! All together

Only when Aurovillians come together united with a clear vision money will flow....
Voted!

So this is bjp's chronological pattern for land grabbing. Just like the temple in Ayodhya!!

Auroville and Aurovillians live at the mercy of thousands of families that offered this land for free decades ago. Please do not forget that.
