  • Question

  • Statement: Should India become a permanent member of UN's Security Council?

    Arguments:

    1. Yes. India has emerged as a country which loves peace and amity.
    2. No. Let us first solve problems of our own people like poverty, malnutrition.


  • Options
  • A. Only argument I is strong
  • B. Only argument II is strong
  • C. Either I or II is strong
  • D. Neither I nor II is strong
  • E. Both I and II are strong

  • Correct Answer
  • Only argument I is strong 

    Explanation
    A peace-loving nation like India can well join an international forum which seeks to bring different nations on friendly terms with each other. So, argument I holds strong. Argument II highlights a different aspect. The internal problems of a nation should not debar it from strengthening international ties. So, argument II is vague.

    • 2. Most Reality TV centers on two common motivators: fame and money. The shows transform waitresses, hairdressers, investment bankers, counselors, and teachers, to name a few, from obscure figures to house-hold names.
