PM Modi will also participate in the Golden Jubilee celebrations at Auroville International Township in neighbouring Villupuram district of Tamil Nadu.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi will be in Puducherry today on a one day visit to the city and will address a public meeting at Lawspet.

The BJP cadre is in upbeat mood and hope that this visit by the prime minister will be a turning point for Pudducherry. The failures of the state government led by CM V Narayanswamy will be highlighted by the BJP.

PM Modi will also participate in the Golden Jubilee celebrations at Auroville International Township in neighbouring Villupuram district of Tamil Nadu.

This project was envisioned by the Mother of Aurobindo Ashram, Mirra Alfassa, is dedicated to the ideal of human unity.

Very little has been done to boost the tourism industry, attract investments and generate employment in Pudducherry.

Even the Smart City project is progressing at snail’s pace.

Prime Minister will also visit the Aurobindo Ashram and pay homage to its founder, Sri Aurobindo. He will sit in meditation for a few minutes at the Aurobindo memorial and would interact with the children of the International School of Education run by the ashram.
