Question

why was the salt march a turning point in indias struggle for independence? the british finally caved to gandhis protest strategies. a foreign journalist gave the story an international audience. gandhi was jailed for his role, which put a stop to the quest for independence. the press refused to cover the story, so no one came to indias aid.

Explanation:

The Salt March, also known as the Dandi March, was a significant non - violent protest led by Mahatma Gandhi. While the British did not immediately "cave" to Gandhi's strategies (they continued to rule for some years), the event gained international attention. A foreign journalist covering the march (such as Webb Miller) brought the story to an international audience. Gandhi's jailing did not stop the independence movement; in fact, it inspired more people. And the press did cover the story, which was crucial for its spread.

Answer:

B. A foreign journalist gave the story an international audience.
