Detailed Solution

Given data: An electric dipole kept in a uniform electric filed.

Concept used: electric dipole

Detailed solution: 

Both of the point charges that make up the dipole will experience equal-sized and opposite-direction forces in a homogeneous electric field. The torque for both charges will be in the same direction even though the net force will always be zero. Therefore, torque won’t be zero.
