\huge\textbf{Chipko Movement :}


The Chipko movement started in the Himalayas of Uttar Pradesh in 1970's.


The main purpose of this movement was to prevent cutting of trees which leads to deforestation.


A contractor was given permission to cut down the trees in a forest near the village. However, the villagers were against the decision. 


On a particular day, when the men folk in the village were away at work, the employees of the contractor visited the forest to cut down the trees. 


Indian villagers, mainly the women have participated in this movement. They adopted Gandhian method of Satyagraha by hugging the trees and saving them from being cut down.


Women became part of this movement as a main driver, along with environmentalist Sunderlal Bahuguna started this movement.
