Applying Kirchhoffs law
for loop $ABCDEA:$ $2 i_{1}+2\left(i_{1}+i_{2}\right)=2 \Rightarrow 2 i_{1}+i_{2}=1 \ldots . .(1)$
for loop $HCDFGH:$ $2\left(i_{1}+i_{2}\right)+2 i_{2}=2 \Rightarrow i_{1}+2 i_{2}=1 \ldots . .(2)$
From $(1)$ and $(2),$ $i_{1}+2\left(1-2 i_{1}\right)=1$ or $-3 i_{1}=-1 \Rightarrow i_{1}=1 / 3 A$
and $i_{2}=1-2(1 / 3)=1 / 3 A$
