Since I was at the site meeting (Tuesday, 19th Nov) about the Vikas Radial and took part in the

discussion and my name is mentioned in the email below, here are the techinical .points that I

raised then about the roads.

____________________________________________________________________

QUESTIONS FOR AVFO REGARDING THE DESTRUCTION AND PLANNED

RECONSTRUCTION ALONG THE EXISTING VIKAS RADIAL

and

GENERAL ROAD AND PEDESTRIAN INFRASTRUCTURE CONCERNS

____________________________________________________________________

Dear Auroville Foundation Office (Candassamy) and GB (appointed) TDC /

Communications Team (Jaya & Prasad),

Below are points that were brought to the notice of Govind, Jaya and Prasad, GB (appointed)

TDC personnel, and Mr. Candassamy, Auroville Foundation at a meeting on site. We would like

to have your responses on these following points –

● Communication and a community meeting – it was stressed by the community

members residing along the radial that there has to be communication with the

communities of any work that is being executed that affects them. It was agreed that

the GB (appointed) TDC communications team would share the details of the

proposed work that is being carried out and why it is needed.

● They along with Govind also assured that while this road is being dug up alternative

access will be provided for the residents and other users who use this road for all

– the cyclists and motorized vehicles, including emergency vehicles.

● There was a request from the community to share the Work Order from a competent

authority explaining what work is being carried out and the purpose. It should have a

start date and an expected end date, specifications of the work being carried out, and

who is the contractor and site supervisor for this work with their contact information.

● An information board would be erected on the site where the work is being carried

out. It should have the summary of the same information as in the work order, along

with the cost of the work being executed, and the source of funding.

● Technical questions –

on the same page. Please do go through and let us know if there are any differences in our

understanding.

Outcomes -

● A list of concerns by the communities will be shared and the Avenir communications

team will address these.

● TDC is ready to work with a small team of the residents and will answer community

questions through them. The residents have nominated Avinash, Eric and Rajesh to

represent them.

● The TDC communication team (Jaya and Prasad) acknowledged the lapses in informing

residents about the implementation and the difficulties this caused to the impacted

communities and committed to avoiding this going forward. The TDC communication

team will ensure proper communication to the involved communities about all present

and future work related matters.
