Question

In each question below is given a statement followed by two conclusions numbered I and II. You have to assume everything in the statement to be true, then consider the two conclusions together and decide which of them logically follows beyond a reasonable doubt from the information given in the statement.
Statements: The commissioner of police has appealed people not to put up banners which obstruct pedestrian or motor traffic.
Conclusions:
I. Some of the people may respond and will not put up such banners.
II. Policemen will have to keep a watchful eye on the new banners which are being put up on the roads.

• A. Only conclusion I follows
• B. Only conclusion II follows
• C. Either I or II follows
• D. Neither I nor II follows
• E. Both I and II follow

Answer 1

Answer: (A)

Only conclusion I follows

Clearly, the appeal has been made keeping in mind the fact that it would create awareness and have some effect. So, - I follows. However, the statement talks of a general appeal and not stringent directions. So, II does not follow.
