G20 meeting in Auroville

After India assumed the presidency of the G20 during 2023, the Union Government planned to organise around 200 events across India. One of these was an environment-related conference in Puducherry at the end of January, attended by about 50 delegates from India and other G20 countries. Some also visited Auroville on the 31st January, which was locked down to outside visitors for the day.

Meanwhile, the FO FAMC has encouraged Auroville commercial units, restaurants and guest houses to add a G20 logo along with one for the 150th anniversary of Sri Aurobindo when they communicate with their clients.
