Correct Answer:
B. counterclockwise; included
Explanation:
The correct answer is Garhwal Himalayas.
The Chipko movement was a landmark environmental conservation effort that began in 1973 in the Garhwal region of the Himalayas, specifically in the Chamoli district of Uttarakhand. It was a grassroots response to massive deforestation and government-led logging that threatened the local ecology and the livelihoods of villagers. The term Chipko means to hug or to cling to, representing the non-violent tactic used by protesters who physically embraced trees to prevent them from being cut down. Led by activists such as Chandi Prasad Bhatt and Sunderlal Bahuguna, and famously championed by village women like Gaura Devi, the movement successfully advocated for sustainable forest management. Its impact was so significant that it led to a 15-year ban on commercial tree felling in the region and inspired environmental activism across the globe.
