Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Concept
A two-statement item must test each statement independently before combining the truth values.
A qualified existence claim asks whether the stated view is documented; an absolute claim using words such as perfect, all, or every requires universal support and is defeated by a credible limitation or context dependence.
Application
Statement I says that an opinion exists; it does not claim unanimous agreement. Public debate about the consistency and credibility of Indian higher-education rating and accreditation frameworks establishes the intended qualified claim, so Statement I is true.
Statement II turns an Indian assessment and accreditation framework into a claim of flawlessness and universal transferability. NAAC uses criteria and periodic assessment within the Indian higher-education system, and those procedures can be revised; this does not support adoption by every country or perfection in every respect. Therefore, Statement II is false.
Cross-check
The National Testing Agency final answer key for UGC NET June 2023, 17 June Shift 2, accepts the value ‘Statement I is true and Statement II is false’ for this question. This independently confirms the separate logical assessment.
Result: Statement I is true, but Statement II is false.
