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:
    All reports including post-mortem, videograph and magisterial inquiry reports must be sent within two months of incidents such as custodial deaths or custodial rapes.- An instruction to the state government by the Chairman of National human Rights Commission.
    Conclusions :
    I. The Chairman believes in speedy justice.
    II. A delay in such cases may lead to tampering with evidence.
    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: B

You may be tempted to conclude ''Either I or II follows'' . But read carefully. An advocate of speedy justice, however, would have given such instruction for all cases in general. But the chairman is being specific. Hence only II follows.
