B Correct answer
Explanation

Statement II gives Rajiv's saving as Rs 4500. Given the ratio 4:3 (Naveen:Rajiv), Naveen's saving = (4/3) × 4500 = Rs 6000. This is sufficient. Statement I only states that Rajiv's saving is 75% of Naveen's, which is the same as the 3:4 ratio - it gives no absolute value.
