Each question has 4 choices (a), (b), (c) and (d), out of which ONLY ONE is correct: (a) Assertion is True, Reason is True; Reason is correct explanation for Assertion. (b) Assertion is True, Reason is True; Reason is not correct explanation for Assertion. (c) Assertion is True, Reason is False. (d) Assertion is False, Reason is True.
