Correct Answer: Both I and II follow
Explanation:
Clearly, to face the problem of the ever-growing population, an effective family planning programme, for the people to have small families, is a must. Education shall further stress the advantages of having lesser number of children and the disasters of the fast growth in population. Thus, both the courses follow.
Correct Answer: Either I or II follows
Explanation:
Clearly, either something should be done to alert the trains well in advance in case of a landslide or some means should be adopted to prevent blockage of tracks during landslides. Thus, either I or II follows.
Correct Answer: Neither I nor II follows
Explanation:
Clearly, none of the courses of action follows because firstly, the notification is issued to protect the natural environment and so cannot be withdrawn and secondly, the sanctuaries etc. cannot be shifted.
Correct Answer: Both I and II follow
Explanation:
Clearly, either the work in the court needs to be speeded up or the system be reorganised so that more number of problems can be resolved at the lower levels itself, to provide speedy justice to the people. So, both the courses follow.
Correct Answer: Both I and II follow
Explanation:
Clearly, both the courses directly follow from the pre-requisites mentioned in the statement.
Correct Answer: Both I and II follow

Correct Answer: Both I and II follow
Explanation:
Clearly, the library needs to be provided with the essential facilities and trained personnel for better services. So, both the courses follow.
Correct Answer: Only II follows
Explanation:
Following course I would be an infringement of the right to freedom of individuals. However, if the lacking of their respective fields are found out and removed, the professionals would surely give up the idea of opting for other jobs. Hence, only course II follows.
Correct Answer: Only I follows
Explanation:
Airlines, being convenient and faster means of transport, people would surely prefer it to the railways if there is a marginal difference between the fares. Hence, a considerable gap between the two fares is a must for the railways. So, course I follows. Following course II would reduce the volume of passengers. Hence, II does not follow.
Correct Answer: Both I and II follow
Explanation:
The forecast of a storm clearly necessitates steps to avert any loss of life. So, both I and II follow.
