Explanation
★Statement I is correct but Statement II is incorrect, so the answer is the third option.
★The Millennium Development Goals do have eight goals.
★They guided global development from 2000 to 2015.
★Statement II is wrong, because the Sustainable Development Goals have 17 goals, not 21.
★The SDGs run from 2015 to 2030.
★So only the count in the SDG statement is wrong.
★Hence Statement I is true while Statement II is false.
