Pebble Garden under threat

Many objections have been raised to the proposal that a major part of the land of Pebble Garden, a pioneering project in wasteland regeneration and research that is well known throughout India, are proposed to be allocated to Auroroyali, a contractor, as storage space for building materials. This land, located on the outskirts of Auroville, has undergone careful re-afforestation over the years, and is well-known in India for its success in restoring eroded land.
