Question : 1

    • Statement:
    • Majority of the students in many schools do not pass in the final examination.

  • Courses of Action:
  • I. These schools should be closed down as these have become unproductive.
  • II. The teachers of these schools should immediately be retrenched.

a) If only I follows;

b) If only II follows;

c) If either I or II follows;

d) If neither I nor II follows

e) If both I and II follow.

Answer: (d)

Clearly, the situation demands that efforts be made to remove the lackenings in the present system of education and adequate measures be taken to improve the performance of students. Harsh measures as those given in I and II, won’t help.

So, none of the given courses follows.

Question : 2

    • Statement:
    • The alert villagers caught a group of dreaded dacoits armed with murderous weapons.

  • Courses of Action:
  • I. The villagers should be provided with sophisticated weapons.
  • II. The villagers should be rewarded for their courage and unity.

a) If only I follows;

b) If only II follows;

c) If either I or II follows;

d) If neither I nor II follows

e) If both I and II follow.

Answer: (b)

Clearly, I is not practically viable. However, villagers should be rewarded for their courage, to keep up their spirits in future.

Thus, II follows.

Question : 3

    • Statement:
    • A large number of students have been caught using unfair means during the final - year degree examination.

  • Courses of Action:

a) If only I follows;

b) If only II follows;

c) If either I or II follows;

d) If neither I nor II follows

e) If both I and II follow.

Answer: (d)

Merely a warning for the future won't help, and an extremely harsh punishment as debarring students from exams permanently would spoil their future.

So, none of the courses follows.

Question : 4

    • Statement:
    • It is necessary to adopt suitable measures to prevent the repetition of bad debts by learning from the past experiences of mounting non - performing assets of banks.

  • Courses of Action:
  • I. Before granting loans to customers their eligibility for loans should be evaluated strictly.
  • II. To ensure the payment of installments of loans, the work, for which the loan was granted, should be supervised minutely on regular basis.

a) If only I follows;

b) If only II follows;

c) If either I or II follows;

d) If neither I nor II follows

e) If both I and II follow.

Answer: (e)

To ensure that debts taken are repaid promptly, the customers' requirements and future prospects ought to be studied and their work constantly checked.

Thus, both the courses follow.

Question : 5

    • Statement:
    • A large number of engineering graduates in the country are not in a position to have gainful employment at present and the number of such engineers is likely to grow in the future.

  • Courses of Action:
  • I. The Government Should launch attractive employment generation schemes and encourage these graduates to opt for such schemes to use their expertise and knowledge effectively.
  • II. This happened due to the proliferation of engineering colleges in the country and thereby lowered the quality of the engineering graduates. Those colleges which are not equipped to impart quality education should be closed down.

a) If only I follows;

b) If only II follows;

c) If either I or II follows;

d) If neither I nor II follows

e) If both I and II follow.

Answer: (b)

The emphasis should be not on the Government putting all the engineering graduates to jobs but on the colleges producing not 'degree - holders' but real technical minds which could compete well for gainful employment.

So, only course II follows.
