Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

(A), (C) and (D) only

The correct answer is Option (4) → (A), (C) and (D) only

(A) There was no single belt of Muslim majority areas in British India. (Correct).  . The Muslim majority areas were concentrated in two distinct regions: the west (comprising parts of Punjab, Sindh, Baluchistan, and the North-West Frontier Province) and the east (Bengal and Assam). The two parts of the newly created Pakistan were separated by a large expanse of Indian territory, which was a significant logistical and political challenge.
(B) Khan Abdul Gaffar Khan of North Eastern Frontier Province opposed the two nation theory. (Incorrect). Known as the "Frontier Gandhi," Khan Abdul Ghaffar Khan was a staunch opponent of the Partition and the two-nation theory, advocating for a united India. However, he belonged to North West Frontier province and not North Eastern Frontier Province. 
(C) There were areas in Bengal and Punjab provinces in British India where non-Muslims were in majority. (Correct)
(D) Minorities on both sides of the border suffered violence due to Partition. (Correct). Hindus and Sikhs in what became Pakistan and Muslims in what became India were victims of horrific communal violence, looting, and displacement. The process was far from peaceful, with millions of lives lost and countless people forced to abandon their homes and property.
