Dandi march (1930) is also called the salt satyagraha. Major nonviolent protest action in India led by mohandas (Mahatma Gandhi ) in march _april 1930.
Among with 78 followers, Gandhi started his march form sabarmati Ashram on March 12,1930 fro the small village Dandi
to break the salt law.
He reached the sea shore on april 6,1930.
He picked a handful of salt and inaugurated the civil Disobediencemovement.
In early 1930 Gandhi decided to mount a highly visible demonstration against the increasingly repressive salt tax by marching through what is now the western Indian state of Gujarat from his ashram (religious retreat) at sabramti (near Ahmadabad) to to the town of Dandi (near Surat) on the Arabian Sea coast.
He set out on foot on March 12, accompanied by several dozen followers. After each day's march the group stopped in a different village along the route, where increasingly larger crowds would gather to hear Gandhi rail against the unfairness of the tax on poor people . Hundreds more would join the core group of followers as they made their way to the sea until on April 5 the entourage reached Dandi after a journey of some 240 miles (385 km). On the morning of April 6, Gandhi and his followers picked up handfuls of salt along the shore, thus technically "producing" salt and breaking the law...
No arrests were made that day, and Gandhi continued his satyagraha against the salt tax for the next two months...
