Given below are two statements:
Statement $I$: In $O_2N-C_6H_4-CH^+-C_6H_4-OCH_3$, the carbocation is stabilised by $+R$ effect of $-OCH_3$ group.
Statement $II$: In $O_2N-C_6H_4-CH^--C_6H_4-OCH_3$, the carbanion is stabilised by $-R$ effect of $-NO_2$ group.
In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below:

  • A
    Both Statement $I$ and Statement $II$ are true
  • B
    Both Statement $I$ and Statement $II$ are false
