This question was previously asked in
UGC NET 2023 Home Science Question Paper (13-Dec-2023) (Shift 1)
The correct answer is

Statement I is false but Statement II is true

Statement I is incorrect. Planning, implementation, configuration, and administration of a database management system is the responsibility of a database administrator (DBA), not a hardware engineer. A hardware engineer's role centres on designing, testing, developing, and maintaining the physical components of computer systems, such as circuit boards, processors, memory chips, and peripheral devices; database-related tasks fall outside this role.
Statement II is correct. A network administrator is indeed responsible for managing and maintaining an organization's computer network, including its Local Area Network (LAN), which involves tasks such as setting up network hardware and software, monitoring network performance and security, managing user access, and troubleshooting connectivity issues.
Therefore, Statement I is false, but Statement II is true.
