Whereas, out of the two statements given by the 12-year-old child, the first one is true and the second is false.
Following are the statements given by all the three children
Monu: Sonu is 12 years old, and I am 8 years old.

A dealer packed 290 pens into six boxes of different colors - yellow, blue, black, green, red, and pink. There are as many pens in the blue and yellow boxes combined as there are in the pink box. There are one and a half times pens in the pink box as there are in the yellow box. There are twice as many pens in the black box as there are in the yellow box. There are twice as many pens in the red box as there are in the green box and there are as many pens in the red box as there are in the pink box. How many pens are there in the green box?

There are coins of three different colours with one single digit number (any number from 0 to 9) printed on each side of all the coins. The numbers printed on coins of one colour cannot be repeated on coins of any other colour.
I.There are three red coins and for each red coin the difference between the numbers printed on two sides is 1 and all red coins have identical pairs of numbers.
II. There are three blue coins. The single digit numbers on six sides of these three coins are six consecutive numbers such that the sum of the two numbers on every blue coin is the same and is equal to 11.
III. There are three green coins. All three of them have the number 0 printed on one of the sides and same odd digit number on the other side.
If all nine coins are arranged such that all odd numbers are seen on the top, then what is the sum of these numbers seen on the top of nine coins?

Statement
Experts remark that the goal of education is to give a big push to a nation's potential in research when it is imparted in native languages enabling the country to take full advantage of its citizen's intellectual capabilities

II. Educationists accord greater primacy to native languages as the medium of teaching to embolden the intellectual and analytical thinking of children
III. Education imparted in native languages will check youths from moving out of the country so that the situation of ‘brain drain will turn into a position of ‘brain gain'.
Study the given passage and answer the questions that follow.
With a large arable land area and temperate climate, our country is endowed by nature for agricultural production. As against the world average of only 11%,our arable land area is 51% of the total land area, which can produce two crops a year, even if half of the standard rainfall is received. More than 38 million hectares of land, though cultivable, has been left uncultivated and classified as ‘cultivable wasteland. This accounts for more than the total cultivated land area of our neighbouring four countries taken together. Not only is our rainwater being wasted, but the good top soils are also being eroded and ground water is being depleted. We have not yet given due planning focus to preserve our most valuable natural assets, land and water, which are responsible for agricultural production and consequently, the incidence of poverty. Furthermore, lower increase in prices of farm outputs Compared to those of farm inputs have led to poor profits, poor capital formation and stagnation in the farm sector. It is the people of any country including, of course, those who work in agriculture production, who make or mar its future, not just the politician, industrialists and technicians. Though the latter always play an important role for a country's development, the majority of its people should not be left wallowing in poverty as nothing much can be achieved for improving their status without improving production in agricultural sector and fixing higher minimum support prices for farm outputs, at least commensurate with increases in price with farm inputs.
While quite a number of our natural resources and intervention initiatives are important, which should be our first action step to achieve economic prosperity?
For any country's development, which of the following segments of people should we choose, on a priority basis, for empowering them through a robust policy formulation?
