Correct Answer:

Explanation:
The march on the Tanjore coast to break the Salt Law in April 1930 was organized by C. Rajagopalachari. This event, known as the Vedaranyam Salt Satyagraha, was part of the larger Civil Disobedience Movement inspired by Mahatma Gandhi's Dandi March. Rajagopalachari led about 150 volunteers on a march from Trichinopoly (now Tiruchirappalli) to Vedaranyam, where they defied the British salt laws by making salt from seawater. He was arrested and imprisoned for six months following this protest.
Therefore, the correct answer is (b) C. Rajagopalachari.
