Question

How did gandhi use the tactic of a boy cott to further his objectives

Answer 1

By boycotting salt in India as a protest to raising prices enforced by the British, Ghandi instructed his leaders to not only refuse to buy English salt but also coerced them into making their own salt. By holding a "salt march," to gather salt from the sea, Ghandi gained a lot of press and brought awareness to the maltreatment of Indians under British rule. He also hurt the British economy by cutting ties with their Indian salt market.
