Directions:
In each question below is given a statement followed by two courses of action numbered I and II. A course of action is a step or administrative decision to be taken for improvement, follow-up or further action in regard to the problem, policy etc. On the basis of the information given in the statement, you have to assume everything in the statement to be true, then decide which of the suggested courses of action logically follow(s) for pursuing.
- Statement :
- Many people have encroached upon govt. property and built their houses and business establishments.
- Courses of action :
- I : The government should take immediate steps to remove all unauthorised constructions on govt land.
- II : All the encroachers should immediately be put behind bars and also be slapped with a hefty fine.
Answer: (b)
II is an extreme action and hence does not follow.
I is a proper course of action.
Note that taking immediate steps is not the same as immediate removal of the constructions, which may again have been considered to be an extreme course of action.
- Statement :
- Water table in most parts of the State has gone down to such a level that its extraction for irrigation purposes is not economical any more.
- Courses of action :
- I : Extraction of ground water for any purpose in the State should be banned for some time in order to replenish the water table.
- II : The Government should make provisions for alternative methods of irrigation so that the farmers are not compelled to use ground water.
Answer: (d)
I is impractical. Water is essential for life to go on.
II is sensible, especially when using ground water is proving to be uneconomical.
- Statement :
- The meteorological department has predicted normal rainfall throughout the country during the current monsoon.
- Courses of action :
- I : The govt should reduce the procurement price of foodgrains for the current year.
- II : The govt should reduce subsidy on fertilizers for the current year.
Answer: (c)
If the rainfall is normal, it does not mean we would deprive the farmer of his due.
The actions may be deemed to be correct only if we know that they are the reversal of policies which had been framed during crisis years.
- Statement :
- A major river in the city was reduced to a polluted and dirty canal after tonnes of sewage made way into it over the years.
- Courses of action :
- I : All those who dumped garbage and sewage into the river should be penalized.
- II : The government should modify the sewage system and find an alternate way to dump the city's waste.
Answer: (d)
I is easier said than done. Even I makes sense only when the govt goes for II.
- Statement :
- Cell phone users have found that tariff plans are not as attractive as promoted by telecom companies and complained to regulatory authority about the same.
- Courses of action:
- I. The regulatory authority should direct telecom companies to be transparent on the tariff structure of all plans.
- II. The government should restrict the number of telecom companies operating in the country.
Answer: (b)
Being "not as attractive as promoted" is a clear case of hiding things.
Hence "transparency" is the answer to the problem and I follows.
II goes against the spirit of free market and is not relevant to the problem either.
