Option $A$ is the correct answer.
Both statement 1 and statement 2 are correct and statement 2 is the correct explanation of statement 1.
The image of Carbon tetrachloride has been attached for clarity. It is a tetrahedral molecule where Carbon forms four single covalent bonds with four Chlorine atoms by sharing their electrons. The four bonds are symmetrical in nature and extend out in four different directions. Thus, the dipole moments in each direction is cancelled out. Hence, Carbon tetrachloride is a non polar molecule.
