Arguments evaluation (India as a permanent member of the UN's Security Council): Should India become a permanent UNSC member? Weigh—(I) Yes: India loves peace and amity; (II) No: first solve internal problems like poverty and malnutrition—on relevance to the membership criteria and logical sufficiency.

Given data

• Decision: India's eligibility for a permanent UNSC seat.
• Argument I: Cites peaceful disposition—insufficient as a criterion.
• Argument II: Diverts to domestic poverty/malnutrition—irrelevant to UNSC representation.

Concept/Approach
Strong arguments must address the relevant criteria (global role, capacity, representation). Neither argument does so.

Step-by-step evaluation
Step 1: I is necessary at best but not sufficient; membership depends on broader factors.Step 2: II is a red herring—domestic challenges do not preclude international representation.

Verification/Alternative
Typical criteria include population, economy, contributions to peacekeeping, diplomatic weight—not invoked here.

Common pitfalls

• Using emotive but irrelevant considerations for institutional membership.

Final Answer
Neither I nor II is strong.
