Statement: Should there be a maximum limit for the number of ministers in the Central Government? Arguments: No. The political party in power should have the freedom to decide the number of ministers to be appointed. Yes. The number of ministers should be restricted to a certain percentage of the total number of seats in the parliament to avoid unnecessary expenditure.

Correct Answer: Only argument II is strong

Explanation:

Clearly, there should be some norms regarding the number of ministers in the Government, as more number of ministers would unnecessarily add to the Government expenditure. So, argument II holds strong; Also, giving liberty to the party in power could promote extension of unreasonable favour to some people at the cost of government funds. So, argument I does not hold.
