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 — The answer is that both statements are incorrect.
Explanation
★The answer is that both statements are incorrect.
★In Indian logic the inference itself does not require verbal form, since inference for oneself needs no words.
★So Statement I is incorrect.
★Indian logic treats inference as one integrated process and does not split it into separate induction and deduction.
★So Statement II is incorrect.
★Thus neither statement holds.
★So the answer is that both statements are incorrect.
