B Neither conclusion I nor II follows Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
C Both conclusions I and II follow Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
D Only conclusion I follows Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

Solution

Statement: India is a country of multiple languages. Conclusion I: All Indians can speak multiple languages. This conclusion assumes that because India is a country of multiple languages, all Indians can speak multiple languages. However, the statement does not imply that every individual in India can speak multiple languages, just that the country itself has multiple languages. Therefore, Conclusion I does not logically follow from the statement. Conclusion II: Every country has multiple languages. This conclusion generalizes the specific information about India to all countries. The statement only provides information about India and does not mention or imply anything about the linguistic diversity of other countries. Therefore, Conclusion II does not logically follow from the statement either. Given these analyses, the correct answer is: 2. Neither conclusion I nor II follows
