Solution

The correct option is A 1 only

Explanation:

Statement 1 is correct: In line with the Congress ideology, the Quit India Movement was supposed to be a peaceful non-violent movement aimed at urging the British to grant India independence. But angered by repeated firings & repression, in many places the people took to violent actions. They attacked the symbols of British authority-the police stations, post offices, railway stations, etc. Madras & Bengal were the most affected in this respect.

Statement 2 is not correct: Muslims helped by giving shelter to underground Activists during Quit India Movement. There were no communal clashes during the movement.
