Answer:

Taxation of salt has occurred in India since the earliest times. However, this tax was greatly increased when the British East India Company began to establish its rule over provinces in India. In 1835, special taxes were imposed on Indian salt to facilitate its import.

Salt law was imposed by the British and opposed the Indian

The British made it illegal for the Indians to collect the natural deposits of salt.due to India's weather, the citizens sweats and lose more of the human body's salt supply. Indians didn't eat much meat (natural source of salt) so they needed to find a supplementary source of salt. Thus, the British imposed the salt tax to control the Indians.the government lifted the tax a year later after the Salt March
