Question

Give answer:
- (A) If only argument I is strong
- (B) If only argument II is strong
- (C) If either I or II is strong

Statement: Should the vehicles older than 15 years be rejected in metros in India?
Arguments:
- Yes. This is a significant step to lower down the pollution level in metros.
- No. It will be very difficult for vehicle owners to shift to other parts in country because they will not get suitable job for their very existence.
Answer: Option A
Clearly, 15 year old vehicles are not Euro-compliant and hence cause much more pollution than the recent ones. So, argument I holds. Argument II is vague since owners of these vehicles need not shift themselves. They might sell off their vehicles and buy new ones - a small price which every citizen can afford for a healthy environment.
