The correct answer is: B. Salt Movement
The Salt March, also known as the Dandi March, was a 240-mile (390 km) protest march undertaken by Mahatma Gandhi and Indian nationalists in colonial India in MarchâApril 1930. The march began on 12 March 1930, from Gandhi’s ashram in Sabarmati, Gujarat, and ended on 6 April 1930, after 24 days, when he reached the coastal town of Dandi, Gujarat. At Dandi, Gandhi broke the salt law by picking up a lump of salt from the sea, thus beginning the nationwide Civil Disobedience Movement.
The Salt March was a major turning point in the Indian independence movement. It was a nonviolent protest against the British government’s salt monopoly, which was a major source of revenue for the British. The march also served as a rallying point for Indian nationalists and helped to unite the country against British rule.
The Salt March was a successful protest, and it led to the British government making a number of concessions to the Indian nationalists. However, the British government did not give up its rule over India, and the Indian independence movement continued until 1947, when India gained its independence.
