Given below are two statements: one is labeled as Assertion A and the other is labeled as Reason R. Assertion A: Personal localite channels are local leaders and local people who belong to the receiver's own social system. Reason R: Extension agents are personal cosmopolite channels and are from outside the social system of the receiver.
Choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:

Correct option is B

· Personal localite channels: These are communication channels where information is transferred through local leaders, friends, family members, and trusted community members who belong to the same social system.
· Extension agents: These individuals act as personal cosmopolite channels. They come from outside the local social system and introduce new technologies or practices to the local community.
· While both statements are independently true, Reason R is not a direct explanation of Assertion A.
Thus, the correct answer is (b).
