• 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

It is mentioned in the statement that India's economy depends mainly on forests. This means that forests should be preserved. So, I follows. But, that only preservation of forests can improve the economy, cannot be said. So, II does not follow.
