FO Working groups open meeting

The FO Working Committee, ATDC and FAMC invited residents to an open meeting on 24th January at Unity Pavilion where they shared a report of their work as well as updates on a number of topics and forthcoming events. One surprise announcement was that apparently 1737 crore rupees (US $ 213,141,601) has been approved for the development of Auroville, but it was unclear if this had been approved by the Government of India or by the Governing Board.
