The question asks for the best description of the Khilafat Movement. To answer this, we need to understand its origins, objectives, and the nature of its support.

The question asks to identify the personality who renounced the title of 'Haziq-ul-Mulk' during the Khilafat agitation. This requires knowledge of key figures involved in the Khilafat Movement and their actions, specifically regarding the renunciation of titles bestowed by the British.

The question asks about the primary objectives of the Khilafat Movement in India. To answer this, we need to recall the historical context and the demands put forth by the leaders of this movement.
C) To preserve the territorial integrity of Turkey and retain the Khalifa as the spiritual head of Muslims — This accurately reflects the core demands of the Khilafat Movement. Indian Muslims were deeply concerned about the fate of the Ottoman Empire (Turkey) and the Caliphate after World War I, viewing the Caliph as a symbol of Muslim unity and religious authority.
The Khilafat Movement in India was a pan-Islamic political protest campaign launched by Indian Muslims to pressure the British government to protect the integrity of the Ottoman Caliphate. To determine why it ended, we need to identify the event that directly removed the central cause of the movement.
D) Abolition of the Caliphate by Mustafa Kemal Pasha (Ataturk) in Turkey in 1924 — This event directly removed the central cause and objective of the Khilafat Movement, rendering it obsolete. The movement was about protecting the Caliphate, and once the Caliphate was abolished, there was no longer a cause to fight for.
