The Correct Option is D

Solution and Explanation

The passage explicitly states that "the real motive of partition was mainly a politically driven decision to weaken Indian nationalism," identifying this as the actual purpose behind the Bengal partition, even though it was presented publicly as an administrative decision.
None of the other options, administrative efficiency, minority safeguards, or strengthening education, are mentioned anywhere in the passage as the partition's motive.
So option 4 is correct.
