Solution

The correct option is C Both statements are true and statement 2 was the reason for statement 1.
Guru Nanak Ji would often ask questions that even the pundits had to think deeply. One of the practices that was questioned was the thread ceremony. Since his family followed Hindu traditions, he had to undergo the thread ceremony. But during the thread ceremony, he refused to wear it. He reasoned that the thread should be made of virtues, rather than cotton.
