Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

Under Hindu law, an idol is recognized as a juristic person and can hold property. Therefore, the assertion is true. However, the reason is false because not only human beings, but even juristic entities (like companies, idols, etc.) can be recognized as legal persons. \fbox{Final Answer: (C): A is true but R is false}
