Solution

The correct option is B Only argument II is strong
Argument I is weak which is evident from the II argument which is really strong. Moreover, the discipline which is there in military, is different from the discipline that we want in colleges as well as in the society. It will definitely increase regimentation because every one does not like military training and his freedom of choice is challenged here.
