Answer: B

Explanation

Mahatma Gandhi made the powerful statement, ‘Sedition has become my religion,’ during the Civil Disobedience Movement, specifically when he publicly violated the Salt Law at Dandi on April 6, 1930. This act of defiance, picking up a handful of salt, symbolized India’s refusal to accept unjust British laws and rule. Gandhi’s statement underscored his commitment to non-violent resistance against what he considered an immoral and oppressive government, equating his struggle for freedom with a religious duty. This moment marked a significant escalation in the Indian independence movement. Understanding key statements and their historical context is important for UPSC Modern History.
