Hello Aspirant ,

The answer to your question is (b) electric potential is zero. In a dipole with two opposite charges , exactly at it's midpoint the electric potential due to cancelling of the charges becomes zero but the electric field due to charges at same point is non-zero.

Hope you understood it!
