What was the Salt March, and why was it important?
The Salt March, also known as the Dandi March, was a 24-day, 240-mile march led by Mahatma Gandhi in 1930 as a direct action against the British salt tax in colonial India. It was important because it was a high-profile demonstration of nonviolent resistance, attracting massive public support and international attention. The Salt March is often regarded as a critical turning point in the Indian independence movement.
