Question

Directions: Directions: Each question given below consists of a statement, followed by two arguments numbered I and II. You have to decide which of the arguments is a 'strong' argument and which is a 'weak' argument. Give answer (a) if only argument I is strong; (b) if only argument II is strong; (c) if either I or II is strong; (d) if neither I nor II is strong and (e) if both I and II are strong.




  • Statement:

  • Should India give away Kashmir to Pakistan?

  • Argument :

  • I. No. Kashmir is a beautiful state. It earns a lot of foreign exchange for India.

  • II. Yes. This would help settle conflicts.

Options:
A .  if only argument I is strong;
B .  if only argument II is strong;
C .  if either I or II is strong;
D .  if neither I nor II is strong and
E .  if both I and II are strong.
Answer: Option A
Answer: (a)
Clearly, India cannot part with a state that is a major foreign exchange earner to it. So, argument I holds strong.
Further, giving away a piece of land unconditionally and unreasonably is no solution to settle disputes. So, argument II is vague.
