The correct answer is "C".

The Partition of India of 1947 marked the beginning of the end of the British Rule over India. It consisted of the separation of the Indian subcontinent into 2 separate administrative territories. One of them being Pakistan and the other India. The separation was mainly due to religious reasons, as the Pakistani people were Muslim and the Indians practiced Hinduism.

Answer:

<h2>C. Religious tensions</h2>

Explanation:

Muhammad Ali Jinnah (1876-1948) called for the founding of Pakistan as a separate nation, and served as the first Governor-General of Pakistan. As the Indian subcontinent was pursuing independence from British rule, Mohandas Gandhi had hoped for a single, united nation that included both Hindus and Muslims.  But ultimately, two separate nations were created:  India (predominantly Hindu population) and Pakistan (predominantly Muslim population).  Jinnah had served as leader of the All-India Muslim League since 1913, and that group pressed for a separate nation for Muslims in the regions that became Pakistan.
