Devyani, Rahul Gandhi can hardly be called an activist, it is just not fair to count him along with the likes of the ones mentioned in the above link.

yeah right . we can his activities only also.He has become a famous personality due to his movement.

My most favorite activist is Sunder Lal Bahuguna of Chipko movement. He campaigned for preserving trees. His followers would cling to trees for preventing cutting. His name is not in link.

I too admire Bahuguna a lot! I think the link only covers the MOST WELL-KNOWN activists in the whole world. There are so many more who not much known but are equal to others in the magnitude and scale of work done by those activists!

Mother Teresa was not a politician. she headed /Missionaries of charity' a social organization for helping sick and orphans. She is one of best social activists. She is above all.

In Indian history the list of Activists are so long that it will take miles to write.

Thanks for sharing the link with us so that we may know many activists who are less familiar.
