  • if only argument II are strong 

    Explanation

    Clearly, there should be some norms regarding the number of ministers in the Government, as more number of ministers would unnecessarily add to the Government expenditure. So, argument II holds strong. Also, giving liberty to the party in power could promote extension of unreasonable favor to some people at the cost of government funds. so, argument I does not hold.
