Question

There is a statement followed by two arguments. Choose the correct option which gives the decision on the arguments, which is derived from the statement.
LPG subsidy is a stand taken by the government. Linking of Aadhar card to a bank account has been made mandatory for receiving the subsidy.
Argument I: All people should give up LPG subsidies.
Argument II: To fill the gap between poor and rich.

• A. Argument II is the output of Argument I
• B. Argument I is a byproduct of Argument II
• C. Argument I and Argument II are complementing to each other
• D. No logical link between Argument I and Argument II

Answer 1

The Correct Option is D

The given statement discusses the linkage of the Aadhar card to bank accounts for receiving LPG subsidies. Argument I suggests that all people should relinquish these subsidies, while Argument II suggests doing so would bridge the gap between the affluent and the less fortunate.

To evaluate the relationship between Argument I and Argument II, let's analyze the content and intent behind both. Argument I implies a voluntary act of giving up subsidies by everyone, including those in different economic strata, to possibly reduce the burden on the government's resources. In contrast, Argument II addresses socioeconomic disparity, suggesting that such a measure could improve equality between rich and poor. 

However, there is no direct causation or logical dependency between the two arguments. Simply giving up subsidies is not a specific solution for addressing societal inequalities; likewise, the motive to bridge the rich-poor gap does not inherently result in everyone giving up subsidies. The two arguments present separate issues and intentions without a clear, logical correlation.

Thus, the correct conclusion is:

No logical link between Argument I and Argument II
