D. an indigenous people of India who were later pushed into Europe

Explanation:

Many philologists in the 19th-century theorized that the term arya was used as a self-description of the Proto-Europeans, who were often referred to at this time as the "primitive Aryans." By extension, the word became used in the West for Indo-European speakers as a whole. But this never had frequent use among linguists, precisely because the term arya was already reserved for Indo-Iranian. However, the use of Aryan as a synonym for Indo-European spread in popular (non-linguistic) use at the end of the 19th century. Various authors postulated the existence of an ancient Aryan people, from whose language the languages of Europe had originated. These ancestors are given the name of Aryans, taken from the Sanskrit and avestan word Arya which means ‘noble’ or ‘gentile’.

The idiomatic relationship is considered a consequence of migrations coming from the east of the Ural mountains. Two waves would occur: one emigrated to South Asia, whose descendants are the Iranian peoples (Iran, Afghanistan, Tajikistan, Balochistan, Kurdistan) and the Hindustani peoples (India, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, and Pakistan) and the other wave emigrated to Europe especially in southern areas like Italy and Greece.
