💨 Abstract

The Chipko Movement, lasting over three decades, began in a Garhwal village and ultimately led to the formation of Uttarakhand state. Notable figures like Chandi Prasad Bhatt and Sunderlal Bahuguna received numerous awards for their efforts. Vandana Shiva, though not directly involved, became globally recognized for her ecofeminism theories.
