Let's Try..

Mahatma Gandhi with other nationalists reasoned that it was sinful to tax salt since it is such an essential item of our food. In 1930, Gandhiji declared that he would lead a march to break the salt law. According to this law, the state had a monopoly on the manufacture and sale of salt. He led a march, to the coastal town of Dandi, where he broke the salt law by gathering natural salt found on the seashore, and boiling sea water to produce salt.

That's it..its from the ncert textbook :)
