The above statement is False.
The addition of sugar does not make the pure water conductive. Sugar and benzene are the best examples of non-electrolytes. They do not conduct electricity. But the addition of salts makes the pure water conductive. Because the salts contain ions that are responsible for conducting current through them.
The correct statement would be, adding sugar does not make water conductive.
