- C
- D
- E
- D
- D
- A
I is desirable because tighter security arrangements are needed for dangerous people. II is ruled out because its efficacy is in doubt
- E
Both I and II are established facts and hence both I and II follows.
- B
It is an established fact that a teenager who takes drugs will never stop it if he is beaten by the police. But the right action is to take him to a rehabilitation centre. Hence only II follows.
- D
Both I and II are vague. It lacks substance. Nothing concrete is being said here.
- A
If floods occur this year too, I is likely to yield positive results. II is a negative approach. We must refrain from panic but a healthy fear is desirable.
