Assertion A implies that personal localite channels are individuals within the same social system as the receivers of information. Reason R states that extension agents are personal cosmopolite channels and are from outside the social system of the receiver. Both statements are true but they describe different categories of channels. Assertion A talks about personal localite channels who belong to the same social system as the receivers, while Reason R discusses extension agents who are indeed external to the social system of the receiver.
