2. B. Non cooperation Movement
3. C. Civil Disobedience Movement (Correct answer)
4. D. Quit India Movement

Correct Answer

Option C — Civil Disobedience Movement

Detailed Solution & Explanation

The correct answer is Civil Disobedience Movement.

Key Points

• The Dandi March or Salt Satyagraha, from 12 March to 6 April 1930, launched the Civil Disobedience Movement.
• Gandhi walked roughly 385 km from Sabarmati Ashram to the coastal village of Dandi with 78 followers, and broke the salt law by making salt from seawater.

Additional Information

• The salt tax was chosen deliberately: it fell on rich and poor alike, making it the most universally resented of British levies.
• The movement was suspended by the Gandhi-Irwin Pact (March 1931), after which Gandhi attended the Second Round Table Conference.
• Sequence for revision: Non-Cooperation (1920-22) → Civil Disobedience (1930-34) → Quit India (1942).
