Gandhi's Salt March

Gandhi's Salt March, also known as the Dandi March, took place in 1930 as a key event in India's struggle for independence from British rule. Gandhi led thousands of followers on a 240-mile trek to the Arabian Sea to produce salt, protesting the British salt tax that restricted India's access to this essential resource. The march was a powerful act of civil disobedience, embodying the principles of non-violence and self-sufficiency. It drew global attention to India's plight and galvanized support for the independence movement, marking a significant step towards ending British colonial rule in India.
