the displacement of a moving object is zero in a given interval of time would the distance travelled by the object also be zero

YES THE SENTENCE IS TRUE,
BECAUSE THE SHORTEST DISTANCE BETWEEN STARTING POINT AND ENDING POINT IS CALLED DISPLACEMENT, IT CAN BE ZERO WHEN AN OBJECT IS COMING TO STARTING POINT AFTER SUCH TIME

Displacement is the shortest distance covered by a body i.e. distance between it's final and initial point... But distance is the whole path length that a body has covered... For suppose if a body isn't any point on the circumferrence of the circle and after revolving once around it.. It comes to that point again... In it the final and initial point of the body is the same so we can say displacement (means change of place of a body) of body is zero but as we know it has moved a distance equal to perimeter of circle so distance covered is non zero
