During the Indian freedom struggle, the Khudai Khidmatgars, also known as Red Shirts, called for

The Khudai Khidmatgars, led by Khan Abdul Ghaffar Khan, were a non-violent Pashtun (Pathan) movement committed to the freedom struggle and social reform rather than violent or terrorist methods; they were explicitly pledged to non-violence [1]. Politically the movement sought regional Pashtun unity and autonomy/identity (later articulated as Pakhtunistan or a distinct Pathan regional stance) and worked within broader anti-colonial politics, aligning with the Congress on many issues — not advocating terrorist tactics or a communist revolutionary program [2]. Thus their objective is best described as Pathan regional nationalist unity combined with struggle against colonialism.
