Option 4: Assertion is false, but Reason is true.
Correct Answer: Assertion is true, but Reason is false.
Solution : The correct answer is (c) Assertion is true, but Reason is false.
The Assertion is true. Informal communication, while fostering a sense of camaraderie, can also lead to misunderstandings or conflicts due to the casual and less structured nature of informal exchanges.
The Reason is false. While informal communication can often foster camaraderie, it's not always effective, as misunderstandings or conflicts can still arise within informal communication channels. Therefore, the Reason is not entirely correct. However, it does contribute to the understanding that informal communication can promote camaraderie in many cases.
