Chipko Andolan or Movement is practiced the Gandhianmethods of Satyagrah and Non-violent resistance.

This is mainly done through the act of hugging Trees to protect them from Being cut down.


This was first started by Amrita Devi while protesting against a king's men to cut the tree.

The first Chipko action took place spontaneously in April 1973 in the village of mandal in the upper Alaknanda valley and over the next five years spread to many districts of Himalayas in Uttar Pradesh.
