प्रश्न
Answer the following question in 25 to 30 words.
Why did Gandhiji decide to break the Salt Act to begin the satyagraha all over the country?
उत्तर
In 1882 the British announced the Salt Act. This act gave the British monopoly on the collection and manufacture of salt. They also levied a taxation system on the use of salt. Violation of this act was a big offence. Even though salt was freely available to the people who were living near the coast, they had to buy it from the Britishers. Different leaders thought different movements to protest against this. Gandhiji had a different opinion that salt must be used as a choice of protest because this is used by all classes among the citizens. Salt tax consisted of 8.2% the British tax revenue. Gandhiji also felt that this would unite the different religions in the country as they all would be fighting for a common, As the protest began the people began to realize the importance of salt as a symbol.
