Solution

The correct option is A

If only argument I is strong


Clearly, the benefits of education can reach out better to the masses if looked after by governing bodies at the state level, rather than if looked after by a single body at the center. Besides, uniformity in education can be achieved by constant monitoring, and prescribing a common curriculum and assessment policy. So, only argument I holds strong, while II does not.
