Question

Statement: Should all the unauthorized structures in the city be demolished?
Arguments:
I. No. Where will the people residing in such houses live?
II. Yes. This will give a clear message to general public and they will refrain from constructing unauthorized buildings.

• A. Only argument I is strong
• B. Only argument II is strong
• C. Either I or II is strong
• D. Neither I nor II is strong
• E. Both I and II are strong

Answer 1

The correct option is B Only argument II is strong

The demolition of unauthorized buildings would teach a lesson to the unscrupulous builder and also serve as a warning for the citizens not to indulge in such activities in the future. This is essential, as unauthorized constructu\ions impose undue burden on the city's infrastructure. So, only argument II holds strong.
