Solution

The correct option is C Both are right.
The partition of Bengal encouraged the concept of communalism amongst the religious groups in Bengal. During a tour of Eastern Bengal and Assam in 1904, Viceroy Curzon stayed with the Nawab of Dhaka, Khwaja Salimullah. During his stay, he observed that most Muslims were in favour of the partition.
