Given data:

Gauss law defines

Concepts used: Gauss Law

Detailed answer:

Gauss' law states that the total electric flux arising from a volume of charge is equal to the trapped charge multiplied by the dielectric constant of the medium within the surface.

So if E.ds=0, this means that the net flux through the surface is zero.
