The following question consists of a statement followed by two arguments I and II. You have to decide which of the arguments is a 'strong' argument and which is a 'weak' argument.

 Statement: Should there be a concentration of foreign investment in only few states? 

Arguments: I. No. It is against the policy of the overall development of the country.

II. Yes. A large number of states lack the infrastructure to attract foreign investment


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

E) if both I and II are strong.

Answer:

Option A

Explanation:

An equitable distribution of foreign investment is a must for uniform development all over the country. So, argument I holds. Also, no backward state ought to be neglected, rather such states should be prepared and shaped up to attract foreign investment as well. So, II does not hold.
