82nd
commemoration of Dandi March and the spirit of peace and non-violence
April 6,2012 is yet
another red-letter day in the history of India, when the nation witnessed the
re-enactment of historic Dandi March by Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi 82 years ago
to protest the British rule for taxing natural salt. It was on this day in
1930, Gandhiji had started the historic march from Sabarmati Ashram with 78
volunteers for Dandi, a village on the sea cost in Gujarat. The 25-day march
through dusty and muddy tracks culminated on April 6, 1930. As the march
continued, people saw the changing history of the world. It was the whole of
India rising up with rekindled enthusiasm and faith.
