Although is a parallel Marker.
Correct form is : Although X, Y where X & Y needs to be parallel.
Option D introduces AND that is wrong here and distort parallelism.
C maintains parallelism and best option.

Hi,
In pure grammatical language, 'although' is used in a complex sentence(a sentence consisting of a dependent and an independent clause) and 'and' is used in compound sentence(two independent clauses)
Although is used to show a contrast and starts a dependent clause.
and to show contrast, there is a requirement of an independent clause on which 'although....' is dependent.. and only choice C provides that.
'and ' restricts the contrast and is structurally wrong.
