Solution

The correct option is C Statement-1 is True, Statement-2 is False
From relation J=σE, the current density J at any point in ohmic resistor is in direction of electric field E at that point.

In space having non-uniform electric field, charges released from rest may not move along ELOF.

Hence statement 1 is true while statement 2 is false.
