Direction: In making decisions about important questions, it is desirable to be able to distinguish between ''Strong'' arguments and ''Weak'' arguments insofar as they relate to the question. ''Strong'' arguments are those which are both important and directly related to the question. ''Weak'' arguments are those which are of minor importance and also may not be directly related to the question or may be related to a trivial aspect of the question.

Statement:
Should basic operators be allowed to offer wireless telephony services in India?
Arguments:
I. Yes; enhanced competition will bring down the prices for the consumer.
II. No; this will make it cumbersome for the regulators.
-
- if only argument I is strong
- if only argument II is strong
- if either I or II is strong
- if neither I nor II is strong
- if both I and II are strong
Correct Option: A
I goes into reason. Hence I is strong . II is weak because it is not advocating whether despite being cumbersome for the regulators it is beneficial for the people or not.
