what was one long-term effect of the salt march?
○ it led other colonial rulers to support the british empire
○ it led to a worldwide boycott on salt made by the british monopoly
○ the international attention forced britain to grant indians some rights.

Explanation:

The Salt March (Dandi March) led by Gandhi aimed at challenging British salt monopoly. The long - term effect was that international attention forced Britain to grant Indians some rights. The first option is incorrect as colonial rulers didn't support British empire in this context. The second option is about a boycott which was more of a short - term or immediate action. The third option correctly states the long - term effect as the international spotlight on the Indian independence struggle due to the Salt March pressured Britain to concede some rights to Indians.

Answer:

C. The international attention forced Britain to grant Indians some rights (assuming the third option is labeled C, if the original options had labels like A, B, C with A being "It led other colonial rulers to support the British empire", B being "It led to a worldwide boycott on salt made by the British monopoly", C being "The international attention forced Britain to grant Indians some rights")
