Hi !
Gandhiji sent a letter to Viceroy Irwin , which stated 11 demands.
The most important demand , which was needed by both rich and poor , was the abolition of salt tax. Irwin refused to react to their demands.
Hence, Gandhiji started the Salt march , accompanied by 78 trusted volunteers, on 6th April , and reached Dandi , and violated the law by manufacturing salt from sea water. This march marked the beginning of civil disobedience movement.
Important factors that have rise to Civil Disobedience movement:-
1)Salt law
2) Problem with Simon commission
3) Lahore session of Indian National Congress in 1929
4) Irwin's offer of dominion status for India.( which had an unspecified future)

On March 12, 1930, Indian independence leader Mohandas Gandhi begins a defiant march to the sea in protest of the British monopoly on salt, his boldest act of civil disobedience yet against British rule in India.
