Yesterday’s follow up meeting of 25th of May, was actually the follow up of 18th of April, and will have a follow up next week on Tuesday 7th of June at the same place- SAWCHU, and time – at 5pm. The Working Committee(WC) and Auroville Council(AC) mandate is about to end on 22nd of June, and by then new names should be elected by the Resident Assembly Service(RAS). Unfortunately there is only one member left(Don) to provide this service. The task wont be easy. The General Meeting was held to choose an interim RAS, in order to start the election process. For the personal reasons some are in favor to keep the the present WC and AC for next six months, and some for the personal reason want to terminate or stick to the policy of two years mandate.
