Gulabi Gang
The Gulabi Gang is a group of women in India, primarily from the state of Uttar Pradesh, who advocate for women's rights and social justice. Founded in 2006 by Sampat Pal Devi, the group is known for its members wearing bright pink saris, symbolizing their fight against gender-based violence and discrimination. They aim to empower women and provide support to those facing domestic abuse.
The Gulabi Gang also addresses issues like corruption and caste discrimination. They use non-violent methods to confront local authorities and raise awareness about women's rights. Their activism has inspired similar movements across India, promoting gender equality and social change.
