Solution

The correct option is B Only argument II is strong
Clearly, spending money on sports cannot be avoided merely because it can spent on socio-economic problems. So, argument I does not hold. Also, if the expenses on sports are curtailed, the sports persons would face lack of facilities and training and our country will lag behind in the international sports competitions. So, II holds.
