Answer:
Abolition of salt tax is an important tool for the Gandhiji in Civil disobedience movement.
Explanation:
Salt is used by all sections of people irrespective of case, sex, religion and wealth. But, the British government imposes the tax for salt. Taxation of salt in India started from Maurya’s period. Salt taxes are stringently implemented by the British government from the 18th century. Gandhiji wants to unify the people in the civil disobedience movement. So, he uses the salt as a tool to assemble the national movement because salt is the only product used by all peoples in daily basis irrespective of their food habits.
