Understanding the Statement
The statement indicates that the school has implemented a policy to encourage reading by mandating students to read two books weekly and submit reports. This is a strategic approach to foster a reading culture among students.
Analyzing the Conclusions
- Conclusion I: Interest in reading can be created by force.
- This conclusion suggests that imposing rules will inherently create an interest in reading. However, interest is usually a personal and intrinsic feeling. While some students might comply with the reading requirement, it doesn’t guarantee that they will genuinely develop an interest in reading. Thus, this conclusion is not valid.
- Conclusion II: Some students will eventually develop an interest in reading.
- This conclusion is more plausible. By being exposed to books regularly, students may discover genres or stories that resonate with them. Over time, some may cultivate a genuine interest in reading. This aligns with the idea that sustained exposure can lead to engagement, making this conclusion valid.
Final Assessment
Given the analysis of both conclusions:
- Only Conclusion II is supported by the information provided in the statement.
- Conclusion I lacks a strong basis as interest cannot be forcibly created.
Correct Answer
Thus, the correct answer is option 'B': Only conclusion II follows.

Understanding the Statement and Conclusions
The statement presents an advertisement for "Kraft" colours, claiming they add colour to our life. Let's analyze the conclusions drawn from this statement.
Conclusion I: Catchy slogans do not attract people.
- This conclusion suggests that the effectiveness of catchy slogans is negated.
- However, the statement does not provide evidence or context to support this assertion.
- The advertisement itself implies that catchy slogans can attract attention, as it’s designed to promote a product.
Conclusion II: People like dark colours.
- This conclusion assumes a preference for dark colours without any direct reference in the statement.
- The phrase "Kraft colours" could encompass a wide range of colours, not limited to dark shades.
- The statement emphasizes the positive impact of colours on life but does not specify which colours are preferred.
Why Both Conclusions are Incorrect
- Neither conclusion logically follows from the statement provided.
- The advertisement does not make claims regarding the effectiveness of slogans or specific colour preferences.
- Therefore, both conclusions lack sufficient support and cannot be deduced from the statement.
Final Verdict
- Based on the analysis, the correct answer is option 'D' - neither conclusion I nor II follows.
- This indicates that the conclusions do not logically connect with the statement made in the advertisement.
In summary, critical evaluation of the statement and conclusions shows that assumptions made in the conclusions do not align with the information provided in the advertisement.

Understanding the Statements
The provided statements are:
- Statement 1: Only good singers are invited to the conference.
- Statement 2: No one without a sweet voice is a good singer.
These statements help us deduce certain conclusions about the relationship between good singers, sweet voices, and conference invitations.
Analyzing the Conclusions
The conclusions drawn from the statements are:
- Conclusion I: All invited singers in the conference have sweet voices.
- Conclusion II: Those singers who do not have sweet voices are not invited to the conference.
Validity of Conclusion I
- Since "only good singers are invited" and "no one without a sweet voice is a good singer," we can infer:
- All good singers must have sweet voices.
- Hence, all singers invited to the conference (who are good singers) must possess a sweet voice.
Thus, Conclusion I is valid.
Validity of Conclusion II
- The second conclusion states that singers who lack sweet voices are not invited.
- Given that only good singers (who must have sweet voices) are invited, it follows logically that any singer without a sweet voice cannot be a good singer and therefore cannot be invited.
Thus, Conclusion II is also valid.
Final Evaluation
Both conclusions logically follow from the statements provided:
- Conclusion I is true because invited singers are good singers, and all good singers have sweet voices.
- Conclusion II is true because singers without sweet voices cannot be good singers and, therefore, cannot be invited.
Correct Answer
Since both conclusions are valid, the correct answer is option 'D': Both I and II follow.
The provided statements are:
- Statement 1: Only good singers are invited to the conference.
- Statement 2: No one without a sweet voice is a good singer.
These statements help us deduce certain conclusions about the relationship between good singers, sweet voices, and conference invitations.
Analyzing the Conclusions
The conclusions drawn from the statements are:
- Conclusion I: All invited singers in the conference have sweet voices.
- Conclusion II: Those singers who do not have sweet voices are not invited to the conference.
Validity of Conclusion I
- Since "only good singers are invited" and "no one without a sweet voice is a good singer," we can infer:
- All good singers must have sweet voices.
- Hence, all singers invited to the conference (who are good singers) must possess a sweet voice.
Thus, Conclusion I is valid.
Validity of Conclusion II
- The second conclusion states that singers who lack sweet voices are not invited.
- Given that only good singers (who must have sweet voices) are invited, it follows logically that any singer without a sweet voice cannot be a good singer and therefore cannot be invited.
Thus, Conclusion II is also valid.
Final Evaluation
Both conclusions logically follow from the statements provided:
- Conclusion I is true because invited singers are good singers, and all good singers have sweet voices.
- Conclusion II is true because singers without sweet voices cannot be good singers and, therefore, cannot be invited.
Correct Answer
Since both conclusions are valid, the correct answer is option 'D': Both I and II follow.

According to the statement, the political prisoners can be divided into two groups - those who were released and those who were put in jail for political dharnas. However, no person involved in murder was released. This means that no political prisoner had committed murder. So, I follows. Clearly, II is not directly related to the statement and does not follow.

Nothing about the growth of economy is mentioned in the statement. So, I does not follow. Also, it is given that 35 per cent of national income is shared by 10 per cent of households. This indicates unequal distribution. So, II follows.

The use of the term 'milk glut' makes I implicit. Also, the fact that the cooperatives and Government dairies failed to use the available milk indicates that they lack the proper infrastructure to handle such quantities of milk. So, II also follows.

The fact that a certain rule has been more welcomed in a certain country does not imply that the problem is more prevalent there. So, I does not follow. Also, the amendment seeks to discourage only sexual harassment of women and shall in no way discourage employment of women. So, II also does not follow.
