Question

Statement:Should military service be made compulsory in our country?

Argument:

I. No, it is against the policy of non-violence.

II. Yes, every citizen should protect his country.

• A. If only argument I is strong
• B. If only argument II is strong
• C. If either I or II is strong
• D. If neither I nor II is strong
• E. If both I and II are strong

Answer 1

The correct option is B

If only argument II is strong

Clearly, military service is not meant to create violence but to defend against violence. So, argument I is vague. Since every citizen must share in the service towards the country, so argument II holds strong.
