  • Worksheet 5.3
    Worksheet 5.3 The signifi cance of salt Salt is an absolutely crucial commodity in our lives. Historically it was of such great importance that people were paid with salt. Th is is the origin of the word ‘salary’ which obviously we now receive in money when we are working. Th e importance of salt lay in its use to preserve food: a particularly important property in times when there was no access to refrigeration. Th e economic importance of salt was so signifi cant that governments used to impose ‘salt taxes’. Perhaps the most infamous of these was the one the British imposed in India. In a deeply signifi cant move to assert independence, Gandhi led a famous march to the sea in direct peaceful opposition to the British salt tax. On arrival at the sea, Gandhi and his followers broke the British law by making their own salt from seawater. Th e following is an extract from a report in the Guardian [a British newspaper] of 13 March 1930. At 6.30 yesterday morning ‘Mahatma’ Gandhi left Ahmedabad on foot at the head of a band of civil resistance volunteers on a 100-mile march to the sea at Jalalpur, on the Gulf of Cambay. He thus signalled the beginning of civil disobedience or non-violent defi ance of the British administration, and brought into action the new Congress policy of Purna Swaraj, or complete independence. For a fortnight Gandhi’s march is intended to be only a demonstration. Th en, when he expects to be at the sea, he will begin to produce salt from brine, and so infringe the Government salt monopoly, defying the Government to arrest and punish him.
