In each of these questions, a situation has been explained through statements 1 and 2 followed by probable reasons RI and RII. Your task is to find out which is the reason for the situation.
Statements:
1. Many officers were transferred at a very short notice by the Chief Secretary.
2. Only those officers, who kept the Chief Secretary in good humour were not transferred.
RI. The Chief Secretary is a jolly person.
RII. The transfers were based on personal feelings of the Chief Secretary.
It is given that a lot of officers were transferred by the Chief Secretary, except for those who kept him in good humor.
R1: The main statement mentions about 'good humor', which is insufficient to say that the Chief Secretary is a jolly person.
R2: Since the only officers who were not transferred are the ones who kept the Chief Secretary in good humour, it is clear that the transfers were made on the personal feelings of the Chief Secretary. Hence, a valid statement.
