Eco-feminism grew in India as the result of

  • A.Participation in Chipko Movement
  • B.Women's participation in Dandi March
  • C.Women's participation in Freedom Struggle
  • D.Women's participation in Lokpal Movement

Answer: A

Eco-feminism in India grew out of women's participation in the Chipko Movement, in which village women of the Himalayan region embraced trees to stop commercial felling. The movement made visible the link between women's daily dependence on forests, fuel, fodder and water and the exploitation of nature, which is the basic eco-feminist claim, and Vandana Shiva's writings built on it. The Dandi March, the freedom struggle in general and the Lokpal movement were political movements and did not give rise to an ecological feminism.
