Vinod (Passing)

Vinod On October 3rd, S. Vinod Kumar left his body in Nallam Clinic in Pondicherry, due to high blood sugar and pneumonia fever. He was 55 years old. Vinod, who hails from Andhra Pradesh and lived here in Prayatna, first came to Auroville in 1990 and became accepted as an Aurovilian in 1992. Almost from the very beginning, he started organising a little stall with organic fruits. He would bicycle up and down to obtain the best wares he could find. Over the years, the stall grew out into the small but pucca, well functioning  HERS supermarket in Kottakarai – a multi-supply point for the area. Vinod’s remains were cremated at Adventure’s burial grounds.
