Direction: Each question given below consists of a statement, followed by two argument's numbered I and II. You have to decide which of the argument is a 'strong' argument and which is a 'weak' argument.

  1. Statement:
    Should all the infrastructural development projects in India be handed over to the private sector ?
    Arguments:
    I. No. the private sector entities are not equipped to handle such project.
    II. Yes.Such projects are handled by private sector in the developed countries.
    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: D

Clearly, such projects if handed over to the private sector shall be given to a competent authority. So, argument I is vague. Also, imitating a policy on the basis that it worked out successfully in other countries, holds no relevance. Thus, argument II also does not hold strong.
