Detailed Solution

The above statement is true; following Gandhi's symbolic breaking of the salt ban in Dandi, disobedience to the laws spread throughout the country. Participants in CDM included women, peasants, students, tribal members, small-time traders, labourers, and people from all walks of life. In certain areas, salt restrictions were also broken on the orders of various authorities. The Salt Satyagraha was led by C. Rajagopalachari in Tamil Nadu, K. Kelappan in Malabar, Sarojini Naidu, and Manilal Gandhi at the Dharasana Salt Works (Gujarat). A group of 2000 volunteers resisted the salt regulations at the Dharasana salt mill, which is famous for the extent of its nonviolent resistance, while a large police force beat non-resisting Satyagrahis (protesters) until they fell. The movement for civil disobedience was put to a halt by the Gandhi-Irwin accord. It was signed on March 5th, 1931, by Mahatma Gandhi and Lord Irwin, India's Viceroy.
