How did the Civil Disobedience Movement start?

Solution

On 12 March 1930, Gandhiji began his march for Dandi from his Ashram at Sabarmati. He was accompanied by a large number of his followers. He reached Dandi on 6 April, 1930 and broke the Salt Law by making a fistful of salt. In the same way, laws were broken in the whole country by all the people. This resulted in the start of the Civil Disobedience Movement.
