Gandhi’s team was recruited
by choice, his philosophy spread very fast around India and the idea of the
salt march was supported by the Indians who also wanted a change so it was by
choice whether they wanted to follow him to the salt march or not but Gandhi
was successful getting thousands of followers. Gandhi led them to the coast of
India gaining more followers with every city he passed by. Their motivation of
marching 240-miles is the outcome of it, they knew what they were doing is for the
better and the people of India desperately wanted a change. After Gandhi was
arrested, he didn’t have any form of communication to his followers but they
still continued was Gandhi set out to do without him trying to gain independence
for India.

I think that his followers were very loyal as they knew what they were fighting for and if they were successful, the outcome would be great that's why when Gandhi had no form of communication with them, they still continued to carry out what Gandhi set out to do
