How does read from string in bash works?
I came across a command like :-
/bin/bash -c LOCALHOST:/path/to/script --argument
and it gives a error like /path/to/script doesn't exist,but /path/to/script exists.
I want to know how -c option works.

You have to do it like this
$ /bin/bash -c '/path/to/script --argument'
Inside these single quotes is basically the line you would write before you hit Enter.
