Solution

The correct option is B Statement 2 is true and statement 1 is false.
Buddhism originated as an alternative to Hinduism. Hinduism saw a wide increase, in animal sacrifices and an increase in inequalities based on the Varna system. Buddhism does not support either of the practices mentioned above and treats all beings equally.
