Assertion : In our houses when we start ...

Assertion : In our houses when we start switching on different light buttons, main current goes on increasing.
Reason : Different connections in houses are in parallel. When we start switching on different light buttons, then net resistance of the circuit decreases. Therefore, main current increases.
