Answer 2

The British imposed a salt tax on Indians and prevented them from making salt freely. Those who were caught making salt illegally had it confiscated and were sentenced to prison. Salt tax was termed as a brutal tax as salt was an essential item in Indian food.

Gandhi, along with his followers set out on 12th March 1930 on a March to Dandi, to break the salt law.

Gandhi got arrested in the middle of the march even before they reached Dandi. The rally was then headed by one of his followers.

British soldiers were stationed at Dandi, armed with 6 ft long wooden sticks which were capped with metal on the top.

Gandhi had instructed his followers not to protect themselves by shielding themselves. Thus, the British soldiers beated them. More than 300 people died and more than 450 were injured.
