  1. Statement:
    Should Indian become a permanent member of 'UN' s security Council ?

    II. No. let us first solve problems of our own people like poverty, malnutrition.
    1. if only argument I is strong
    2. if only argument II are strong
    3. if either I or II is strong
    4. if neither I nor II is strong and
    5. if both I and II are strong.
Correct Option: A

A peace-loving nation like India can well join an international forum which seeks to bring different nations on friendly terms with each other. So, argument I holds strong. Argument II highlights a different aspect. The internal problems of a nation should not debar it from strengthening international ties. So, argument II is vague.
