Civil Disobedience Movement:  Violation of salt Law by manufacturing salt from seawater by Gandhiji marked the beginning of Civil Disobedience Movement.

The peasants joined the Civil Disobedience Movement Due to the following reasons:

(i) Rich peasants (Patidars of Gujarat and lats of Uttar Pradesh) were active in the movement. They were hard hit by the trade depressions and falling prices. The refusal of the government to reduce the revenue led to widespread resentment.
(ii) For the rich peasants, fight for Swaraj was a struggle against high revenue.
(iii) Poor peasants wanted the unpaid rent to the landlord be remitted so they joined the Civil Disobedience Movement.
