On March 2, 1930, Gandhi informed the viceroy of his plan of action. According to this plan (few realised its significance when it was first announced), Gandhi, along with a band of seventy-eight members of Sabarmati Ashram, was to march from his headquarters in Ahmedabad through the villages of Gujarat for 240 miles.
The historic march, marking the launch of the Civil Disobedience Movement, began on March 12, and Gandhi broke the salt law by picking up a handful of salt at Dandi on April 6.

The violation of the law was seen as a symbol of the Indian people’s resolve not to live under British-made laws and therefore under British rule. The march, its progress and its impact on the people was well covered by newspapers. In Gujarat, 300 village officials resigned in answer to Gandhi’s appeal. Congress workers engaged themselves in grassroot level organisational tasks.

==>> Consequently, the Civil Disobedience Movement started in 1930 with the famous Salt Satyagraha of Gandhi ji, also known as Dandi March that was launched on 12 March 1930. On that day Gandhi ji with some of his followers left the Sabarmati Ashram at Ahmedabaf and made their way towards Dandi, a village on the west coast of India. After travelling for 25 days and covering a distance of 385 km, they reached Dandi on 6 April 1930. Here, Gandhi ji protested against the Salt Law ( salt was monopoly of the government and no one was allowed to make salt ) by making salt himself and throwing up a challenge to the British government. The movement spread and salt laws were challenged in other parts of the country.
