MAHATMA GANDHI: History facts about Gandhi's Salt Satyagraha you did not know.

Mahatma Gandhi's iconic 1930 Salt March to Dandi was a pivotal Civil Disobedience campaign protesting oppressive British salt taxes in colonial India. At the time, the British held a ruthless monopoly on India's salt production, imposing prohibitive tariffs that made this essential mineral unaffordable for millions of impoverished Indians. Despite India possessing over 7,000 miles of coastal salt-rich shoreline, citizens were unable to freely harvest this abundant resource. Gandhi asserted that this unjust salt taxation symbolized the broader exploitation of Indians under British imperialism. On March 12, 1930, the 60-year-old Gandhi began his symbolic 240-mile march from his ashram near Ahmedabad to the coastal village of Dandi. 🚶‍♂️ This 24-day pilgrimage gained international attention, swelling with followers. Upon reaching Dandi, Gandhi theatrically harvested natural salt 🧂 in defiance of colonial law. This peaceful yet impassioned act triggered widespread illegal salt collection and nonviolent demonstrations ✊ across India, leading to over 60,000 arrests 🚔 and ultimately energizing the Indian Freedom Movement against British subjugation.
