Solution

The correct option is A Only I is strong
It is a fact based on researches that quality as well as quantity of education in minority institutions, barring a few, is extremely poor because of many reasons as compared to government's institutions.
So argument first is strong. Second argument is not strong because ruling party must act in accordance with the general welfare of the people disregarding its vote bank.
