    C None of the given conclusion follows Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Only conclusion III follows Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    No Shirt is Skirt (E) + All Skirt is Saree (A) → Some Saree is not Shirt (O*) + Some Shirt is Dress (I) → No conclusion. Hence conclusion I does not follow. No Shirt is Skirt (E) → Conversion → No Skirt is Shirt (E). Hence conclusion II does not follow. No Shirt is Skirt (E) → Conversion → No Skirt is Shirt (E) + Some Shirt is Dress (I) → Some Dress is not Skirt (O*). Hence conclusion III does not follow.
