  • Question 1
    1 / -0

    Statement: Should the parents in India In future be forced to opt for only one child as against the two or many at present?

    Argument: I Yes. This is the only way to check the ever-increasing population of India.
    Argument: II No. This type of pressure tactic is not adopted by any other country in the world.

    Solution

    Clearly, adopting such a policy will definitely help to regulate the population growth, which in turn will facilitate proper growth of the economy and optimum utilization of the country?s resources. So, argument I holds strong. Also, a comparison with what the other countries have done is no strong a criterion for taking a decision on the issue. So, argument II does not hold.

     

  • Question 2
    1 / -0

    Statement: Should ?education? be brought under the control of the Central Government like defense?

    Arguments: I. No. Education is a state subject and it should remain with the state.
    Arguments: II. Yes. This is the only way to establish uniformity in growth of education across the states.

    Solution

    Clearly, the benefits of education can reach out better to the masses if looked after by governing bodies at the state level, rather than if looked after by a single body at the Centre. Besides, uniformity in education can be achieved by constant monitoring, and prescribing a common curriculum and assessment policy. So, only argument I holds strong/ while II does not.

     

  • Question 3
    1 / -0

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

    Arguments: I. No. It is against the policy of non-violence.
    Arguments: II. Yes. Every citizen should protect his country.

    Solution

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

     

  • Question 4
    1 / -0

    Statement: Should India change its course from the economic reform process and look inward for all round economic development?

    Argument: I. No. There is no way to look backward after having started the process.
    Argument: II. Yes. This will benefit India in the long run as the reform process borrowed from western countries will adversely affect our economy.

    Solution

    Clearly, any reform process may be changed, diverted or reversed at any stage, if it is to benefit the nation. Also the idea of considering a process to be non- fruitful just because it has been borrowed from western countries, seems absurd. Thus, neither I nor II holds strong.

     

  • Question 5
    1 / -0

    Statement: Should the admission to professional courses in India be given only on merit without any concession to any particular group of students?

    Arguments: I. Yes. This will improve the quality of the professionals as they will be able to complete the courses successfully.
    Arguments: II. No. This will keep a large number of socially and economically backward students out of the reach of the professional courses.

    Solution

    Clearly professional jobs require quality and merit and, so the students having the required talent can turn out to be better professionals than those who join the course on concession. So, argument I holds strong. However, it is these special concessions which make the professional courses affordable for certain talented students, belonging to socially and economically weaker sections, who otherwise would remain bereft of the same. So, argument II also holds strong.

     

  • Question 6
    1 / -0

    Statement: Should agriculture in rural India be mechanized?

    Arguments: I. Yes. It would lead to higher production.
    Arguments: II. No. Many villagers would be left unemployed.

    Solution

    Clearly, mechanization would speed up the work and increase the production. So, argument I is strong enough. Argument II is vague because mechanization will only eliminate wasteful employment, not create unemployment.

     

  • Question 7
    1 / -0

    Statement: Should the educated unemployed youth be paid ?unemployment Allowance? by the Government?

    Arguments: I. Yes. It will provide them some monetary help to either seek employment or to kick start some ?self-employment? venture.
    Arguments: II. No. It will dampen their urge to do something to earn their livelihood and thus promote idleness among the unemployed youth.

    Solution

    Young people, who do not get employment due to the large number of applicants in all fields, must surely be given allowance so that they can support themselves. So, argument I is valid. However, such allowances would mar the spirit to work, in them and make them idle. So, argument II also holds.

     

  • Question 8
    1 / -0

    Statement: Should all the practicing doctors be brought under Government control so that they get salary from the Government and treat patients free of cost?

    Arguments: I. No. How can any country do such an undemocratic thing?
    Arguments: II. Yes. Despite many problems, it will certainly help minimize, if not eradicate, unethical medical practices.

    Solution

    A doctor treating a patient individually can mislead the patient into wrong and unnecessary treatment for his personal gain. So, argument II holds strong. Also, a policy beneficial to common people cannot be termed ?undemocratic?. So, I vague.

     

  • Question 9
    1 / -0

    Statement: Should there be more than one High Courts in each state in India?

    Arguments: I. No. This will be a sheer wastage of taxpayers? money.
    Arguments: II. Yes. This will help in reducing the backlog of cases pending for a very longtime.

    Solution

    Clearly, an increase in the number of High Courts will surely speed up the work and help to do away with the pending cases. So/ argument II holds strong. In light of this, the expenditure incurred would be ?utilization? not wastage? of money. So, argument I does not hold.

     

  • Question 10
    1 / -0

    Statement: Are nuclear families better than joint families?

    Arguments: I. No. Joint families ensure security and also reduce the burden of work
    Arguments: II. Yes. Nuclear families ensure greater freedom.

    Solution

    Clearly, with so many people around in a joint family, there is more security. Also, work is shared. So, argument I holds. In nuclear families, there are lesser number of people and so lesser responsibilities and more freedom. Thus, II also holds.
