6. The reason for mahatma gandhi during the salt march being an example of civil disobedence • Following his civil disobedience campaign from 1919 to 1922, he was jailed for conspiracy from 1922-1924. In 1930, he led a landmark march to the sea to collect salt in defiance of the government. When he was released from prison in 1931, he attended the London Round Table Conference on Indian constitutional reform. In 1946, he negotiated with the Cabinet Mission which recommended the new constitutional structure.

7. The comparison of Thoreau's & mahatmas Gandhi concept of civil disobedience

8. View point The salt march really wasn’t a civil disobedience it was a civil resistance that changed the views on everything. It showed the British government that the Indian force shouldn’t be reckoned with. They united as one and showed that what they believed in was real and that everything what the British was doing was wrong to the Indians. Gandhi did not believe in a eye for an eye as others did and so that’s why tragedies happen because the British thought they could just do anything since he didn’t believe in fighting back in a physical way.
