Direction: In each question below is given a statement followed by two conclusions numbered I and II. You have to assume everything in the statement to be true, then consider the two conclusions together and decide which of them logically follows beyond a reasonable doubt from the information given in the statement. Give answer

  1. Statement:
    The Center is disinvesting in profit-making PSUs, which is wrong. It is doing so to meet its deficit.
    Conclusions :
    I. The Center should disinvest in loos-making PSUs.
    II. The Centre has a surplus.
    1. if only conclusion I follows
    2. if only conclusion II follows
    3. if either I or II follows
    4. if neither I nor II follows, and
    5. if both I and II follow
Correct Option: E

We are not told anything about the loss -making PSUs. So I does not follow .II states just the opposite of what the statement says. Surplus and deficit are antonyms.
