Dear friend / supporter of Auroville,

This petition has been made necessary by the misgovernance of the current administration of the Auroville Foundation. As you may have heard, since August 2021, it has used increasingly divisive and coercive methods to impose a narrow vision of Auroville’s development, excluding and intimidating those who do not support its line. It has taken direct control of Auroville’s internal working groups and denied recognition to Auroville’s Residents Assembly, one of the three bodies of the Auroville Foundation, thus stifling the genuine voice of the Auroville community.

You can find much genuine information on these developments on the website https://standforaurovilleunity.com/ and through the Auroville Bulletins available here: https://linktr.ee/evolvingalaxy

Auroville residents have sent several representations to the Government of India and the Government of Tamil Nadu. We now seek your help: please read the attached petition and consider signing it — this can be done by filling up this brief form: https://forms.gle/uhKUCuTTuYtXZcBp6

We will appreciate it if you forward this mail to other friends / supporters of Auroville.

(Should you prefer to send a letter of your own to India’s President, Prime Minister and Minister of Education, you are of course at liberty to do so.)

Looking forward to your continued support.

Warmly,
Sangeetha
(Resident of Auroville)
