  • Question
  • Statement:
    Three million tonnes of foodgrains vanished from the Food Corporation of India granaries. Should the officials of the FCL explain it to the people?
    Arguments:
    I. No. Such losses are a routine matter and therefore do not beg an explanation.
    II. Yes. Bungling on such a large scale by publicofficials cannot be condoned; after all it is the people's loss.


  • Options
  • A. if only argument I is strong.
  • B. if only argument II is strong.
  • C. If either I or II is strong.
  • D. if neither I nor II is strong; and

  • Correct Answer
  • if only argument II is strong. 

    Explanation

    Dismissing the losses as ''a routine matter'' is void of logic. If such losses have become regular, there is all the more reason why they need to be explained. So I is weak. II is strong; accountability is at stake.
