Solution

The correct option is B Separate electorates for Muslims
The Lucknow Pact was signed in 1916 between the Indian National Congress and the Muslim League. The Muslim League signed the pact on the condition that separate seats were to be allocated in provincial elections for Muslims since they were a religious minority in India.
