Weak arguments are those which are minor importance and also be directly related to the question of may be related to a trivial aspect of the question.

After each question two Argument I and II are given. You have to decide which argument is strong and which argument is weak.

Question 162

Should India make an all out effort to secure permanent membership of UN Security Council at any cost ?
Arguments:
I. Yes, this is the only way to establish its supremacy in the region.
II. No, there are many other urgent issues which need government’s immediate attention which will make life of citizens comfortable.

Solution

Neither I nor II are important aspect or directly related to the question.
The information mentioned in II is not directly related to the argument. So, it is not strong.
Similarly, I is also a insignificant aspect of the question. So, it can also not be stated as strong.

So, D is the correct answer.
