Question 43

In the question a statement is given, followed by two arguments, I and II. You have to consider the statement to be true even if it seems to be at variance from commonly known facts. You have to decide which of the given arguments, if any, is a strong argument.

Statement : Should mango export be banned to bring down domestic prices?

Argument I : Yes, environmentalists and dietitians too encourage eating only local fruits.
Argument II : No, exports bring in valuable foreign currency.

Solution

The environmentalists and dietitians do not have any major impact on the export of goods, hence first argument is a weak one. But, in the second argument, it is stated that exports bring in valuable foreign currency that can decide whether or not export of mangoes should be banned or not.

Thus, only argument II is strong.

=> Ans - (B)
