Given below are two statements:

Statement I: Electrostatic precipitator is most widely used in thermal power plant.

Statement II: Electrostatic precipitator in thermal power plant removes ionising radiations.

In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:

  1. A

    Both Statement I and Statement II are correct.

  2. B

    Both Statement I and Statement II are incorrect.
