    2. Yes. This is an effective way to make the entire population educated.

  • Options
  • A. All are strong
  • B. Only I, II and III are strong
  • C. Only I, II and IV are strong
  • D. Only II is strong
  • E. Only II and III are strong

  • Correct Answer
  • Only II is strong 

    Explanation
    Clearly, today's children are to make up future citizens of the country and so it is absolutely essential to make them learned, more responsible, more innovative and self-dependent by imparting them education. So, argument II holds strong while I and IV do not. Besides, the goal of literacy cannot be denied for want of infrastructure. So, argument III also does not hold.
