(II) People in west have already opted it. It does not require any external equipment but only body and soul.

Conclusions:
(I) Ancient science is treasure of many cures and natural remedies of various diseases.

  1. A
    Only conclusion II follows
  2. B
    Conclusion I and II both follow
  3. C
    Neither I nor II follow
  4. D
    Only conclusion I follows

Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

Let's evaluate each conclusion strictly based on the provided statements:
Conclusion I talks about ancient science being a treasure of cures for various diseases. While the statement emphasizes the importance of Yoga and Pranayam (ancient practices), it does not explicitly mention "cures and natural remedies of various diseases." Hence, it cannot be logically derived strictly from the text.

Conclusion II mentions that technology has overshadowed ancient sources and introduced gyms. The statements do not provide any information regarding technology or gyms.

Since neither conclusion can be definitively deduced from the statements provided, Neither I nor II follow.
