The correct option is B 2 only

Explanation:

• Statement 1 is correct. In April 1930, C. Rajagopalachari organised a march from Tiruchirapalli to Vedaranniyam on the Tanjore coast to break the salt law. In Malabar,K. Kelappan Nair,a Congress leader famed for the Vaikom Satyagraha, organized salt marches.

The no-revenue part was a call to the zamindars to refuse to pay revenue to the Government, the no-rent a call to the tenants not to pay rent to the zamindars.In effect, since the zamindars were largely loyal to the Government; this became a no-rent struggle.
