Explanation

Mohammed Ali Jinnah opposed Gandhi's association with the Khilafat Movement (1919-1924) on secular grounds. He believed mixing religion with politics would harm India's long-term interests and communal harmony. Jinnah resigned from the Congress in 1920 partly due to his disagreement with Gandhi's support for the pan-Islamic Khilafat cause.
