BBoth Statement I and Statement II are false
CStatement I is true but Statement II is false
DStatement I is false but Statement II is true
Correct answer: (A) Both Statement I and Statement II are true
Explanation

Both statements are true.

Statement 1 is true because the Buddhists do argue that reality should be understood as a linguistic construct, shaped through language and conceptual designation rather than fixed independently.

In this view naming and speech participate in how a world of distinctions comes to appear to us.

Statement 2 is true because in today's context it is apt to say that reality is a media construct, since media selection and framing shape what we take to be real.

The images and narratives circulated by media build much of our sense of events and the world.

Since both the Buddhist linguistic insight and its contemporary media parallel hold, the two are accepted together.
