Statement:\nReacting to news of farmer suicides, the Prime Minister stated that the government will make every possible effort for the upliftment of poor farmers and farmhands.\n\nConclusions:\nI. Only farmers are attempting suicides due to poverty and debt.\nII. No serious efforts have been made till now for the upliftment of any section of society.\n\nWhich option is correct?

Introduction / Context:
The premise reports an announcement of intended efforts in response to a serious problem. We must avoid over-reading the scope of the problem or the history of government action beyond what is stated.

Given Data / Assumptions:

• The statement mentions farmer suicides and pledges “every possible effort” for upliftment.
• It does not say only farmers are affected, nor does it evaluate all prior efforts across society.

Concept / Approach:
Conclusions must be necessary consequences of the given statement. Announcing future action neither restricts the problem to only one group nor condemns all past efforts universally.

Step-by-Step Solution:

Verification / Alternative check:
It is consistent with the statement that other groups may also be at risk, and that some prior efforts existed but were insufficient. Hence neither I nor II is forced.

Why Other Options Are Wrong:
Any option asserting I or II adds content not present in the premise.

Common Pitfalls:
Treating a policy promise as evidence of prior total neglect; assuming exclusivity where none is stated.

Final Answer:
If neither Conclusion I nor II follows.
