Solution

The correct option is D Sir Syed Ahmad Khan
There was hostility between the Muslim community and the British due to its participation in the revolt of 1857. Hence, it stayed away from English education. To address this issue, Sir Syed Ahmad Khan started a new movement known as the Aligarh Reformation Movement. In 1863, he established the Mohammadan Liberty Society to debate and discuss religious, political and social issues of society.
