D. Neither I nor II follows

E. Both I and II follow

Answer: Option D

Solution (By Examveda Team)

Both the premises are A type propositions. So, in either, the middle term 'handles' forming the predicate is not distributed. Since the middle term is not distributed even once in the premises, no definite conclusion follows
