Option 4: Statement 2 is true, Statement 1 is false.
Correct Answer: Statement 1 is true, Statement 2 is false.
Solution : The correct answer is (c) Statement 1 is true, Statement 2 is false.
Statement 1 states that the infant mortality rate in India is higher than in China and Pakistan, which is generally true. However, Statement 2 suggests that sufficient access to quality healthcare and adequate nutrition contribute to the high infant mortality rate in India, which is not accurate. In reality, factors such as limited access to healthcare, poor sanitation, and socioeconomic disparities contribute to the higher infant mortality rate in India. Therefore, Statement 2 is false.
