The Gulabi Gang is a women-led collective in India known for confronting domestic abuse and standing up to injustice in rural communities.
Formed in 2006, the group — easily recognized by their pink saris — has gained attention for intervening in cases where women say authorities failed to act, sometimes physically confronting alleged abusers using bamboo sticks. Beyond that, they’ve also campaigned for women’s rights, access to education, and protection from corruption and violence.
Their actions have sparked debate: supporters see them as a grassroots response to systemic failures, while critics raise concerns about vigilantism and due process.
