$\color{blue}{Mahatma Gandhi's}$ found salt as a powerful symbol that could unite the nation.
On$\underline{31st January 1930}$ , $\color{blue}{Gandhi}$ sent a letter to $\color{red}{Viceroy Irwin }$ stating $\underline{11 demands}$ . Some of these were of general interest; others were specific demands of different classes, from industrialists to peasents. The most stirring of all was the demand to abolish salt tax. Salt was something consumed by the rich and poor alike, and it was one of the most essential items of food.

$\color{blue}{Mahatma Gandhi's}$ letter was an ultimatum. If the demands were not fulfilled by $\underline{11th March}$, the Congress would launch Civil disobedience movement.
