It began in 1970s in Uttarakhand, then a part of Uttar Pradesh(at the foothills of Himalayas) and went on to become a rallying point for many future environmental movements all over the world.
‘Chipko Andolan (Hug the Trees Movement) was a movement started by women of Reni village in Garhwal, who hugged the tree trunks preventing the contractors from felling the trees.
This Andolan quickly spread to other parts of the country and forced the government to rethink their priorities in the use of forest produce. Consequently, the local people were benefitted.
The environment was saved from permanent damage. It affected the quality of soil and the sources of water were affected in a good way.
