C

if the data even in both the statement together are not sufficient to answer the question

D

if the data in both the statements I and II are needed to answer the question

Answer

if the data even in both the statement together are not sufficient to answer the question

Explanation

Solution

The first statement suggests that more students failed in class XII this year but doesn’t attribute it to watching TV.
The second statement only mentions that watching TV is harmful to the eyes, without addressing its impact on students' performance. Therefore, even when combined, both statements are insufficient to answer the question.

So, the correct option is (C): if the data even in both the statement together are not sufficient to answer the question.
