  • Question

  • Statement: Is caste-based reservation policy in professional colleges justified?

    Arguments:

    1. Yes. The step is a must to bring the underprivileged at par with the privileged ones.
    2. No. It obstructs the establishment of a classless society.
    3. Yes. This will help the backward castes and classes of people to come out of the oppression of upper caste people.


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

  • Correct Answer
  • Only II is strong 

    Explanation
    Clearly, capability is an essential criteria for a profession and reservation cannot ensure capable workers. So, neither I nor III holds strong. However, making one caste more privileged than the other through reservations would hinder the objectives of a classless society. So, argument II holds strong.
