You have to assume everything in the statement to be true, then decide which of the given suggested courses of action logically follows for pursuing.
Statement: The world conference on “Education of All” took place in Thailand in 1990. Widely attend conference endorsed the Framework for Action for Meeting the Basic Learning Needs of all Children.
Course of Action:
I. India should suitably implement the Action points of this conference.
II. India should also immediately organize this type of conference.
The statement talks about a world conference that laid down some framework with respect to meeting the learning needs of children.
The first course of action states that India shall implement the framework, which is a valid statement considering the utility of the said framework. Hence, a valid course of action.
The second course of action states that India shall conduct a similar conference immediately, which seems to be serving no purpose. This is because the framework has already been laid down and widely discussed, thereby making another conference a not-so-urgent event. Hence, an invalid course of action.
