Correct Option: B
Given that Ram > Shyam, Vikram > Jay.
Hence from this we can conclude that neither Ram nor Vikram is the shortest. And we have to find the shortest. And we have to find the shortest among them:
Consider statement alone:
We know that that Ram is not the shortest, either Shyam or Jay is the shortest.
Hence (I) alone is not sufficient.
Consider statement I alone Shyam > Vikram.
From the given information and the information in (II), we get Ram > Shyam > Vikram > Jay.
Hence, (II) alone is sufficient.
