these developments are deeply discouraging. the government of india is destroying this spiritual city. one of the excuses of the secretary's anti-democratic authoritarian decision-making is that the Residents' Assembly was blocking progress, and the secretary needs to make auroville grow. but during the last few years prior to the appointment of the new secretary, there were several large-scale housing projects (humanscapes, sunship, maitreye etc), but there have been no new housing projects in the last two years: just a foolish incomplete road which has scarred the youth center and led to serious ecological damage. i am appalled at the indifference of citizens of india (and of the world) to the wretched mismanagement of auroville under the direction of this party apparatchik.

This is a dire situation! A real crisis! We have to hope for a turnaround. Is there a channel to send funds that will help support those whose maintenance has been cut and also the forest work/workers?
