Arguments evaluation (ban on foreign films in India): Should foreign films be banned? Consider—(I) Yes: they portray alien culture that harms our values; (II) No: foreign films are of high artistic standard—judging cultural-impact claims versus artistic merit and policy relevance.

Given data

• Policy question: Total ban on foreign films.
• Argument I: Claims cultural harm from “alien culture,” but provides no mechanism or evidence and is value-laden.
• Argument II: Cites artistic quality as a reason against a ban, which is orthogonal to the regulatory decision (quality ≠ policy criterion for access).

Concept / Approach
A strong argument should use objective, relevant criteria (classification, certification, age ratings, competition/choice). Vague cultural alarmism or generic praise of quality does not directly resolve the ban question.

Step-by-step evaluation
Step 1: I is unsupported and sweeping—weak.Step 2: II, while positive, is not a policy reason by itself; regulation focuses on certification, not blanket bans—weak.

Verification / Alternative
Reasonable policy: certify by content standards rather than impose a total ban—neither argument addresses this nuance.

Common pitfalls

• Arguing policy via subjective cultural taste or generic quality labels.

Final Answer
Neither I nor II is strong.
