Given below are two statements. Statement I : Iron (III) catalyst, acidified $\mathrm{K}_{2} \mathrm{Cr}_{2} \mathrm{O}_{7}$ and neutral $\mathrm{KMnO}_{4}$ have the ability to oxidise $\mathrm{I}^{-}$ to $\mathrm{I}_{2}$ independently. Statement II : Manganate ion is paramagnetic in nature and involves $\mathrm{p} \pi-\mathrm{p} \pi$ bonding. In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below.
