Solution

The correct option is A Khilafat Movement
The Khilafat Movement was started in India in 1919 under the leadership of Ali brothers- Maulana Mohammad Ali and Shaukat Ali. With the onset of the Khilafat Movement, Indian Muslims sided with the Sultan of Turkey or the Ottoman Empire, which was fighting the British in Europe. Muslims across the world were agitated by the humiliation of the Caliph after the defeat of Turkey in World War I. This movement gained support from Mahatma Gandhi, who started the Non-cooperation Movement in 1920.
