Given below are two statements:

Statement $I :$ An electric dipole is placed at the centre of a hollow sphere. The flux of electric field through the sphere is zero but the electric field is not zero anywhere in the sphere.

Statement $II :$ If $R$ is the radius of a solid metallic sphere and $Q$ be the total charge on it. The electric field at any point on the spherical surface of radius $r ( < R )$ is zero but the electric flux passing through this closed spherical surface of radius $r$ is not zero.
