The correct option is C Divide and Rule
The British initially supported the Indian National Congress (INC). Later, as the Indian National Movement started growing rapidly, they declared the INC as disloyal. The British then encouraged leaders like S.A Khan to oppose Congress policies. Soon came the Surat Split of 1907, as the Moderates and the Extremists parted ways. The British policy of 'Divide and Rule' is said to have played a big role in this development.
