Answer
Comment
Array

Option : B
Explanation :
Let L₁ = an bn⇒ CFL
L₂ = Σ* ⇒ Regular
L₁ ∪ L₂ = (aⁿ bⁿ) ∪ Σ* = Σ* ⇒ Regular
Since L₁ ∪ L₂ is regular but L₁ is not regular, Hence statement I is false.
Regular language is not closed under infinite union.
Hence, statement-II is also false.
∴ Neither I nor II is true.
