Hint:
 Muslim League, original name All India Muslim League, is one of the political party that led the agitation at the time of the partition of British India (1947) to establish a separate Muslim republic. The Muslim League was established in 1906 to safeguard the interests of Indian Muslims.

Complete step by step solution:
This was an erroneous notion since Congress still intended to incorporate many of the nation's cultures and had many Muslim politicians as participants. Khwaja Salimullah, Vikar-ul-Mulk, Syed Amir Ali, Syed Nabiullah, Khan Bahadur Ghulam and Mustafa Chowdhury were the Muslim League's leaders. Sir Sultan Muhammad Shah (Aga Khan III) was the first honorary President of the League. The AIML was basically a faction, at least in the beginning, of educated elite Muslims.
The principal objective of the party was to foster and protect Muslim civil rights. As a way of gaining more democratic and human liberties, it promoted allegiance to the British government.
The league 's goals were:
- To cultivate feelings of allegiance to the British government among Muslims.
- To protect and to express the political rights of Muslims to the government.
- To stop the growth of bigotry among Muslims against other groups in India.
In 1913, Muhammad Ali Jinnah joined the league. Throughout the 1940s, the party, under Jinnah, led the movement for Pakistan and was active in its goal of dividing the land. With independence in 1947, the nation was split along communal lines.
Hence, the correct answer is option C.

Note:
On 14 August 1947, the league was dissolved. The political parties in Pakistan, Bangladesh and India continue to exist in separate ways. The Indian Union Muslim League, based in Kerala, acts as a political party in India and, ironically, aligns itself with the Congress Party.
