Key Concept: Sita’s Dependence on Javni, Emotional Support
a) Both Assertion and Reason are true, and Reason is the correct explanation of Assertion.
[Solution Description]
The Assertion (A) states that Sita feels she could not have lived in the challenging environment without Javni. This is supported by the text where Sita says, "Without Javni I could never have lived in this damned place!" and later mentions, "I should have died of fright had not Javni been with me." The Reason (R) explains that Javni understands Sita's fears and beliefs, unlike Ramu, who is described as "too practical and too irreligious." The text confirms this when Sita says, "Javni, I am sure, understands my fears, my beliefs. Men, Ramu, can never understand us." Thus, the Reason correctly explains why Sita depends on Javni for emotional support.
