Statement II:Indian logic does not reject the verbalist view of logic.
ABoth Statement I and Statement II are correct
BBoth Statement I and Statement II are incorrect ✓ Correct
CStatement I is correct but Statement II is incorrect
DStatement I is incorrect but Statement II is correct
Correct answer: (B) Both Statement I and Statement II are incorrect
Explanation
Both statements about Indian logic are incorrect.
Indian logic does not split induction and deduction into separate processes; its inference fuses the two in one movement.
The reason both illustrates a general law and applies it to the case at once.
Indian logic is also realistic and rejects a purely verbalist or word-bound view of reasoning.
Since one claim wrongly separates the processes and the other wrongly denies the rejection of verbalism, both fail.
