The correct Answer is:
D
From I, we conclude that Kapil was born on any one of the dates among `16^(th),17^(th)and18^(th)`.
From II, we conclude that Kapil was born on any one of the dates among `13^(th),14^(th),15^(th)and16^(th)`.
Thus, from both I and II, we conclude that Kapil was born on `16^(th)` August.
