Discussion
Given below are two statements, one is labelled as Assertion (A) and the other is labelled as Reason (R).
Assertion (A) : Rudradaman I repaired the damaged embankment of Sudarshana lake.
Reason (R) : As a good gesture, he neither levied any emergency tax nor demanded the free services of people.
In the context of the above two statements, which one of the following is correct ?
Codes :
Answer: B
Both statements are true but the reason does not explain the assertion. The Junagadh inscription says Rudradaman repaired the Sudarshana lake embankment after the damage, and it adds that he did so without levying taxes or forced labour.
The absence of the emergency tax and free service is an additional fact about how he did the work, not the cause of the repair, so (R) is not the explanation of (A). That makes option B correct.
