    Question

    In each question below is given a statement followed by

    two courses of action numbered I and II. You have to assume everything in the statement to be true and on the basis of the information given in the statement, decide which of the suggested courses of action logically follow(s) for pursuing.   Statement: A government report reveals that several factories located near the river are releasing untreated chemical waste into the water, despite strict environmental regulations prohibiting such practices. Courses of Action: I. The factories responsible should be immediately shut down until they install proper waste-treatment systems. II. The government should withdraw all environmental regulations related to industrial waste disposal.
    A Only I follows Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Only II follows Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Neither I nor II follows Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Both I and II follow Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    The statement clearly indicates that factories are violating existing environmental regulations by releasing untreated waste. A reasonable course of action is to enforce compliance, which can include temporarily shutting down factories until they meet legal requirements → Course I follows. Withdrawing environmental regulations (Course II) would worsen the situation, as the issue arises due to non-compliance, not because the regulations are unnecessary. Hence, Course II does not follow. Therefore, Only Course of Action I follows.
