Statement:
Should hallmarking of gold be made compulsory in India?
Arguments:
I. Yes, this is would not only protect consumer interest, but also give more credibility to the manufactures in the international jewellery market.
II. No, hallmarking would damage the product and it will further decrease its utility.

Argument I is strong because it interprets the survey conducted recently and emphasises on 'yes'. But II is not strong. What has been banned in Chennai should not necessarily be banned in other metropolitan cities.

I is strong because economy can flourish only when its backbone is strong. II is weak because it does not cite any substantial reason. What does ''too big a role'' mean?

I is strong because a hung parliament must be got rid of for the benefit of nation. II is also strong because elections carry the mandate of voters. If they are cheated, the very purpose of elections is lost.

I is not strong. If the surveys are fake, there is nothing wrong whit surveys per se. If a fault creeps into a method, we should correct the method instead of discarding it. II is strong because in a buyer 's market, you must know the consumer behavior thoroughly to stay ahead of your competitors.

I is weak because it seems to be at best a joke and at worst a whim . It is not acceptable to reason. Economists, even when in large numbers, are only a handful. So how much do you think you can gain by giving them some other employment? And if you think the devil lies in their theories- that two economists seldom agree-, let me tell you it's a healthy trend. Critics are very important in the upliftment of a society. II is strong because the more the awareness, the greater the activity. See how our economy has developed in recent years.

I is strong because it advocates for the interests of farmer and industries, the backbone of our country. II is weak due to the wording ''at all costs''.

I does not answer how the real prosperity of nation will come thought the move. Hence I is weak. II is also weak because it does not say how the free railway pass will be harmful to students.

I is strong on humanitarian ground. II is also strong because this is the ultimate step to restrict the mob.

I Only I is strong. Quality of a doctor must not be neglected. II is not strong because it adds nothing to the statement.

Basic purpose of keeping a mobile phone is to facilitate mobile holders to be in touch whit the outside would. This purpose will not be affected even after the implementation of the move. Hence , I is weak. II is ambiguous.
