The correct option is D 14 August, 1946
Jawaharlal Nehru was invited by Lord Mountbatten to form the Interim Government on 14 August, 1946. However, the Muslim League launched The Direct Action Day on 16 August, 1946, to push for their demand for Pakistan. It led to violent communal riots in Bengal, Bihar, and Punjab.
