Statement:\nA number of school children in local schools fell ill after consuming their subsidized tiffin provided by the school authority.\n\nCourses of Action:\nI. The tiffin facility of all schools should be discontinued with immediate effect.\nII. The Government should implement a system to certify the quality of tiffin provided by schools.\n\nWhich course(s) of action logically follow(s)?

Introduction / Context:
Food-borne illness in school meals demands stronger safety and oversight, not blanket discontinuation of nutrition programs that benefit many children, especially from low-income families.

Given Data / Assumptions:

• Incident: Illness after consuming subsidized tiffin.
• Risk: Contamination due to procurement, preparation, storage, or hygiene lapses.
• Need: Assurance of food safety with continued nutrition support.

Concept / Approach:
Logical action strengthens quality controls: certification, audits, hygiene protocols, vendor vetting, and corrective action against violators. A universal shutdown harms beneficiaries and is disproportionate.

Step-by-Step Solution:

Verification / Alternative check:
Best practice: HACCP-style protocols, surprise inspections, capacity building for kitchen staff, supplier controls.

Why Other Options Are Wrong:

Common Pitfalls:
Eliminating essential programs instead of fixing their weaknesses.

Final Answer:
Only II follows.
