Despite massive opposition, Sampat Pal has started a neighbourhood watch group for women called The Gulabi Gang. They travel from village to village helping women who are treated badly, in cases where the police are either unwilling, or unable, to do their job.

Bundelkhandin seudulla Intiassa yhteiskunnan köyhimmät kokevat sortoa ja hyväksikäyttöä. Laajasta vastustuksesta huolimatta Sampat Pal on perustanut naisten avuksi asukaspartion, jonka nimi on Gulabin jengi. He matkustavat kylästä kylään auttamaan kaltoin kohdeltuja naisia tapauksissa, joissa poliisi ei joko halua tai voi tehdä työtään.
