Question

    In each question below is given a statement followed

    by two conclusions numbered I and II. You have to assume everything in the statement to be true, then consider the two conclusions together and decide which of them logically follows beyond a reasonable doubt from the information given in the statement. Statement: The government has announced a scheme offering substantial tax rebates to companies that set up manufacturing plants in rural areas in order to promote employment and industrialization in villages. Conclusions: I. The government wants to encourage industrial development in rural regions. II. Companies that set up manufacturing plants in cities will also get tax rebates.
    A Only conclusion I follows Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Only conclusion II follows Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Either I or II follows Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Neither I nor II follows Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E Both I and II follow Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Conclusion I follows because the statement clearly mentions that the scheme aims to promote employment and industrialization in rural areas. Conclusion II does not follow because the statement specifies tax rebates for companies setting up plants in rural areas. It says nothing about tax rebates for companies in cities.
