Solution

The correct option is D A,B,C are true
Electric potential may exist at a point where the electric field is zero. Ex: Field at the centre of a uniformly charged ring is zero but potential is non-zero
Electric Field may exist at a point where the electric potential is zero. Ex: Potential at the mid point of two equal and opposite point charges is zero but not the field
The electric potential inside a charge conducting sphere is constant.
