Question

Statement : The standard of education in private schools is much better than Municipal and Zilla Parishad-run schools.
Conclusions :
I. The Municipal and Zilla Parishad should make serious efforts to improve standard of their schools.
II. All Municipal and Zilla Parishad schools should be closed immediately.

• A. Only conclusion I follows
• B. Only conclusion II follows
• C. Either I or II follows
• D. Neither I nor II follows

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

The given statement compares the standard of education between private schools and schools run by Municipal and Zilla Parishad, suggesting that private schools have a higher standard. Let's evaluate the conclusions:

1. Conclusion I: The Municipal and Zilla Parishad should make serious efforts to improve the standard of their schools. This conclusion logically follows from the statement. Since the statement indicates a disparity in educational standards, it is reasonable to deduce that efforts should be made to improve public schools to meet or exceed those standards.
2. Conclusion II: All Municipal and Zilla Parishad schools should be closed immediately. This conclusion is extreme and not logically derived from the given statement. The statement points out a problem but does not imply that closure is the necessary or sole solution.

Given this analysis, Only conclusion I follows because it directly addresses the potential action needed in response to the issue raised in the original statement, while conclusion II is not a logical deduction from the information provided.
