Prime Minister Narendra Modi inaugurated the Azadi Ka Amrit Mahotsav in March to celebrate 75 years of Independence by flagging off a 241-mile march from the Sabarmati Ashram in Ahmedabad to Dandi. Also known as Salt March or Salt Satyagraha, the Dandi March was a nonviolent civil disobedience movement launched by Mahatma Gandhi in 1930 against the British colonial rulers’ salt monopoly. The movement was a key trigger to the final push for Indian Independence.

During a visit to Sabarmati Ashram, Modi wrote in the visitors’ book that Azadi Ka Amrit Mahotsav was a tribute by Indian people to freedom fighters and the freedom movement. During the celebrations, India will not only remember all important milestones and important times during the freedom struggle but gain new energy for future development.
