Model Answer
A. Madras (Chennai) — The session of the Indian National Congress was held here in 1927, where it passed a resolution demanding complete independence (Purna Swaraj).
B. Dandi — Mahatma Gandhi marched to this Gujarati coastal town and broke the Salt Law on 6 April 1930 by manufacturing salt from sea water.
Explanation
- These are map-based 1-mark each questions. Just the correct place name earns the mark; a brief identifier line helps confirm you know why it is marked.
- Dandi is directly stated in the source: "On 6 April he reached Dandi, and ceremonially violated the law, manufacturing salt by boiling sea water."
- Madras (1927 INC session) is standard CBSE Class 10 History factual knowledge — the Congress session at Madras declared the goal of Purna Swaraj.
- On the actual map, write the name clearly on the line provided near the marked point. No extra writing is needed on the map itself.
