Question
In the question below, few statements are given
depicting an issue or a problem. You have to assume everything in the statements to be true even if they are at variance from commonly known facts, and on the basis of the information given in the statements, decide which of the suggested courses of action logically follow(s) for pursuing. Statement: Several residential neighbourhoods located near large garbage dumps have reported a sharp rise in cases of respiratory illness over the past six months. Residents complain that toxic fumes from burning waste and foul odours are making the air unbreathable. Courses of Action: I. The local municipal corporation should immediately deploy teams to stop the burning of waste at the garbage dumps. II. Hospitals in these neighbourhoods should be shut down temporarily to avoid overcrowding. III. The administration should initiate a long-term waste-management plan to reduce the quantity of waste dumped in these areas.Solution
Course of Action I is logical. The statement mentions that toxic fumes from burning waste are causing respiratory illnesses. Stopping waste burning directly targets the source of the problem and is an immediate corrective measure. Hence, it follows. Course of Action II does not follow. Closing hospitals during a rise in illnesses is counterproductive. It would worsen the situation rather than solve it. So II is illogical. Course of Action III follows. Creating a long-term waste-management plan addresses the root cause — large garbage dumps. This is a preventive and sensible step to avoid future health issues. Thus, Only I and III logically follow → Option B.
