Solution

The correct option is A Both Assertion and Reason are correct and Reason is the correct explanation for Assertion
The assertion is true. As we see interference fringes if the sources are spatially coherent.
And at any instant in time there will be places where the intensity is high and places where it will be low. Because the two light sources are not coherent that is to say they do not have a fixed phase relationship, the positions of these light/dark areas changes very rapidly - make a guess of every $10^{- 10}$ second. What you see is a time-averaged intensity - which is the uniform illumination of the screen.
