Explanation

The correct chronological sequence of these historical events is: Partition of Bengal (1905), Foundation of the Indian Muslim League (1906), Surat Split (1907), and Transfer of capital from Calcutta to Delhi (1911). The Partition of Bengal was implemented on October 16, 1905, by Lord Curzon to divide the province along communal lines [t7]. Following this, the All-India Muslim League was founded on December 30, 1906, in Dacca to safeguard Muslim political interests [t1][t2]. The Indian National Congress subsequently faced a major internal crisis known as the Surat Split in 1907, where the party divided into Moderates and Extremists. Finally, during the Delhi Durbar of 1911, the British government announced the annulment of the Bengal partition and the official transfer of the imperial capital from Calcutta to Delhi [c1][c2]. This sequence corresponds to the order 3-1-2-4.
