  • if neither I nor II follows, and 

    Explanation

    It is true that if calamities are''a regular event''. they must strike every few years. But floods are not the only calamity. The calamity may strike in the form of drought, earthquake, etc. Hence I does not follow. II does not follow because scientific expertise is not the only problem; the trouble may be with implementation.
