Solution

The correct option is C Persian
The British introduced Western literature, science, and education through the language of English in India. Muslims were resistant to this change, as they were rightfully proud of their own literature, culture, and tradition. However, as the British enforced the usage of English education, the Muslims started falling behind in the educational and cultural sphere. Persian, the language then used in courts, was replaced by the language of English during this process of introducing it to the Indian subcontinent.
