The correct option is B Only argument II is strong
Should individuals/institutes having treasures of national significance like Nobel Prizes, hand them over to the Central Government for their safe custody?
These kind of prizes are for pride and honor and having them is very important for their representation.
It provokes feeling of pride and self worthy. Therefore it should be with the institution only despite of the limited resources.
Thus argument II is strong and I is vague.
Hence, Option B is correct.
