Two issues that will get you to right choice
1) usage of MORE - it requires THAN for comparison. B and C are eliminated
2) Comparison - people in two different periods..
it requires DID after than ...

Only D is left

Although this question is interesting, I do not think this question will be one of official gmat questions because the source is unclear.

Some of the people in the nineteenth century in India encountered far more intense opposition against their struggle for social legitimacy than the organized social upheavals of most other periods.

A. against their struggle for social legitimacy than - opposition and against are redundant
B. in their struggle for social legitimacy as did - Idiom has to be "far more.... than" and not "far more...as"
C. against their struggle for social legitimacy as - opposition and against are redundant
D. in their struggle for social legitimacy than did - more than is the correct usage
E. when they struggled for social legitimacy than has - "than has" is incorrect.
