Abstract

This paper examines Gandhian Folk Poet Ghandshyam Raturi Sailani, who inspired the Chipko Movement in Uttarakhand. Sailani, a prominent figure in the movement, encouraged the communities of hills to lead effectively and understand their rights and responsibilities. He actively participated in forest conservation and anti-liquor movements, promoting literacy and activism. Sailani's movements were characterized by their adherence to Gandhian principles, including Sarvodaya and nonviolence, which significantly boosted their impact. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
