Given below are two statements: Statement-I Vision of International Solar Alliance; Every home no matter how far away, will have a light at home. Statement II : Mission of International Solar Alliance: Let us together make sun brighter. In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:
Both Statement I and Statement II are incorrect.
This question checks the exact wording of the vision and mission of the International Solar Alliance (ISA), a treaty-based coalition of solar-resource-rich countries promoting solar energy.
The actual statements are swapped in the question. The ISA's Vision is: "Let us together make the sun brighter," while its Mission is: "Every home, no matter how far away, will have a light at home."
Statement I wrongly assigns the 'every home will have a light' line to the Vision, so it is incorrect.
Statement II wrongly assigns 'make the sun brighter' to the Mission, so it too is incorrect.
Because both statements interchange the vision and mission, both are wrong, making the 'both incorrect' response correct.
Why the other choices fail: 'both correct' accepts the swapped wording; the two options that mark only one statement wrong fail because the interchange makes each statement individually inaccurate.
Takeaway: For ISA, the poetic 'make the sun brighter' is the Vision, and the goal of a light in every home is the Mission — the question reverses them.
Correct answer: Both Statement I and Statement II are incorrect.
