In beginning of 1930 Congress working committee invested Gandhiji with all powers to launch Civil Disobedience Movement. Gandhiji decided to make salt the central formula for the movement as there was no other article like salt, outside water, by taxing which the government can reach the starving millions. Salt was chosen as the central formula in civil disobedience moment because it was a commodity that every Indian could relate, be it poor,middle class,rich,dalits or brahman all used salt alike.The Salt March, which took place from March to April 1930 in India, was an act of civil disobedience led by Mohandas Gandhi to protest British rule in India. During the march, thousands of Indians followed Gandhi from his religious retreat near Ahmedabad to the Arabian Sea coast, a distance of some 240 miles.
