उत्तर
If Assertion is true but Reason is false.
Explanation:
Propagation of light through an optical fibre is due to total internal reflection taking place at the core-cladding interface. The claim is correct.
One requirement for total internal reflection is that light goes from a denser to a rarer medium. Total internal reflection occurs in optical fibre as light passes from the core to the cladding. As a result, the core's refractive index should be larger than that of the cladding. As a result, the reason is untrue.
