• 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

Answer: (A)

Only argument I is strong

Abolishing the internal assessment would surely reduce favouritism on personal grounds because the teachers would not be involved in examination system so that they cannot extend personal benefits to anyone. So, argument I holds strong. But it will not affect the control of teaching faculty on students because still the teachers would be teaching them. So, argument II is vague.
