Statement — The 1990 World Conference on “Education for All” endorsed a framework of action to meet basic learning needs of all children.\n\nCourses of Action —\nI. India should suitably implement the action points of this conference.\nII. India should immediately organize this type of conference.

Difficulty: Medium

Correct Answer: if only I follows

Explanation:


Introduction / Context:
The statement cites a global framework already agreed upon. The logical next step is domestication and implementation, not re-hosting the event.



Given Data / Assumptions:


  • Outcome: a framework of action exists.
  • COA I: implement relevant action points nationally.
  • COA II: immediately organize a similar conference in India.


Concept / Approach:
COA I is the obvious follow-through—curricular reforms, access/retention, teacher development, measurement, and inclusion. COA II adds little; convening another conference does not substitute for implementation and is not implied by the statement.



Step-by-Step Solution:


1) Translate framework → national plan and execution (I).2) Reject II as redundant at this stage.


Verification / Alternative check:
Implementation can proceed using existing documents and bilateral cooperation; no new conference is necessary to begin.



Why Other Options Are Wrong:


Only II/Either/Both: confuses deliberation with action.Neither: ignores a clear, actionable path (I).


Common Pitfalls:
Overvaluing meetings relative to execution.



Final Answer:
Only I follows.
