Detailed Solution

The above statement is false.
Gandhiji began the march with his 78 trusted followers after Lord Irwin refused to agree to his eleven demands. Gandhiji embarked on a 240-mile journey from Sabarmati Ashram in Ahmedabad to the seaside town of Dandi in Gujarat as part of the historic Dandi March or Salt Satyagraha. For 24 days, the volunteers walked 10 kilometres each day. Finally, on April 6, he arrived in Dandi and broke the salt law by heating seawater to make salt. The movement was brought to the international community's attention by Gandhi's conversations with foreign writers and reporters while on the march.
Hence the correct statement would be that Gandhiji started the 'salt march' from Sabarmati to the town of Dandi.
