Statement: Should government stop spending huge amounts of money on international sports?
Arguments:
- Yes. This money can be utilized for upliftment of the poor.
- No. Sports persons will be frustrated and will not get international exposure.
Answer: Option B
Clearly, spending money on sports cannot be avoided merely because it can be spent on socio-economic problems. So, argument I does not hold. Also, if the expenses on sports are curtailed, the sports persons would face lack of facilities and training and our country will lag behind in the international sports competitions. So, II holds.
