March 26, 1974, when a group of peasant women in Reni village, Hemwalghati, in Chamoli district, Uttarakhand, India, acted to prevent the cutting of trees and reclaim their traditional forest rights that were threatened by the contractor system of the state Forest Department. Their actions inspired hundreds of such actions at the grassroots level throughout the region
Chipko movement was started by a man named Sunderlal Bahuguna. In this movement people used to hug the trees tightly. When wood cutters were cutting the trees indiscriminately, Sunderlal Bahuguna started this movement in order to save the environment. As you know that trees are the most important part of the nature. This movement saves trees as well as the environment.

Some people like Chandi Prasad Bhatt and Gaura Devi started it to prevent officials from felling the trees near a village called Mandal to sell forestland to a sports goods industry.

Gaura DeviOn March 26, 1974, the day the lumbermen were to cut the trees, the men of the Reni village and DGSS workers were in Chamoli, diverted by state government and contractors to a fictional compensation payment site, while back home labourers arrived by the truckload to start logging operations. A local girl, on seeing them, rushed to inform Gaura Devi, the head of the village Mahila Mangal Dal, at Reni village (Laata was her ancestral home and Reni adopted home). Gaura Devi led 27 of the village women to the site and confronted the loggers.More is here... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chipko_movement
