Given below are two statements:
Statement $I$: An electric dipole is placed at the centre of a hollow sphere. The flux of electric field through the sphere is zero,but the electric field is not zero anywhere in the sphere.
Statement $II$: If $R$ is the radius of a solid metallic sphere and $Q$ is the total charge on it,the electric field at any point on a spherical surface of radius $r$ ( < R ) is zero,and the electric flux passing through this closed spherical surface of radius $r$ is also zero.
In the light of the above statements,choose the correct answer from the options given below:
