Statement: All rectangles are parallelograms.

Conclusions:

I) No parallelogram is a rectangle → Does not follow (So it contradicts the statement as some parallelogram are rectangles, therefore it is false)

II) All parallelograms are rectangles → Does not follow (As rectangle are subset of parallelogram so some parallelogram are rectangles, therefore it is false)

∴ Here, neither conclusion I nor II follows.​

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 3".

Given statement: As it stands today, some Indian sports are not what they were once. India had significant victories in football and hockey earlier.

Given conclusions :

I) Presently we have no good players in football and hockey in our country. → Does not follow

The given statements states that the performance has declined but it doesn't mentions anything about players.

II) India lost many football and hockey matches in recent years. → Follow

As in the statement has made comparison with the past victories in football and hockey, implying that there is a decline in performance which can lead to lost matches.

Thus, only conclusion II follows.

Hence, "Option 2" is the correct answer.

• The given statement is: "The teacher scolded Aruna in front of her classmates during project submission." This provides a factual description of an event but does not provide sufficient evidence to draw the conclusions mentioned.
• Conclusion I states: "Aruna was not as popular as her other classmates." However, there is no mention in the statement about Aruna's popularity or her relationship with her classmates. Popularity cannot be inferred from the teacher's actions alone.
• Conclusion II states: "The teacher does not like Aruna." The statement does not provide any evidence about the teacher's personal feelings toward Aruna. The teacher's act of scolding Aruna could be related to her behavior or the situation at hand, not necessarily a reflection of personal dislike.
• Therefore, both conclusions are speculative and not supported by the information provided in the statement.

• Rationale: This option is incorrect because the statement does not provide any details about Aruna's popularity. The teacher's scolding cannot be directly linked to her social status or acceptance among her classmates. Thus, conclusion I cannot be considered valid.

• Rationale: This option is incorrect because the statement does not indicate the teacher's personal feelings toward Aruna. Scolding someone does not necessarily imply dislike; it could be a disciplinary action or related to the project submission.

• Rationale: This option is incorrect because neither conclusion is supported by the given statement. There is no evidence in the statement to validate either Aruna's popularity (conclusion I) or the teacher's personal feelings (conclusion II).

• The correct answer is that both conclusions I and II are wrong. The statement provides a factual event but does not contain sufficient information to infer either Aruna's popularity or the teacher's personal feelings toward her.
• When evaluating conclusions, it is important to rely only on the evidence provided in the statement and avoid making assumptions or interpretations that go beyond the given information.

Given,

Statement:

Unemployment is one of the major reasons for the poverty of any country.

Conclusions:

I. In a poor country all the people are unemployed - False (Because, the statement mentions that unemployment is one of the major reasons for poverty, but it does not imply that all the people in a poor country are unemployed).

II. It is required to create employment opportunities to reduce poverty - True (Because, the statement highlights unemployment as a major cause of poverty, so creating employment opportunities logically follows as a solution to reduce poverty).

So, only conclusion II follows.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 2".

Given statement: Before the Delhi Police, none had an Intelligence Traffic Management System in the country.

The passage clearly states that - 'The Delhi Police will soon be the first in the country to have an Intelligence Traffic Management System (ITMS)'.

The statement has just rephrased this sentence by saying that there is no other police in the country that has an ITMS.

Thus, A - The statement is definitely true.

Thus the correct answer is "Option 2".

From the statement above, we get information about the most debatable topic in Indian media which is Politics.

But the information provided is not sufficient enough for us to conclude the likes and dislikes of every Indian. 
Therefore, the conclusion I do not follow.

On the other hand, we can easily conclude that a large part of the Indian audience has a liking for discussions on political issues which makes the media use it as a topic for debates more frequently.
Therefore, conclusion II follows.

Hence, Only conclusion II follows.

Conclusions:

I. The rules followed in the school are not proper→ False (some students do not behave properly even if there are strict rules)

II. Such a student should be expelled from school → False (as there are many students who behave improperly and the removal of a student from school doesn’t correct their behavior)

Concept: We have to examine the given statement and then analyse the conclusions to judge if the given conclusions are following the statements or not.

Statement: 

For admission to MA (Social Work) course, the condition of prior experience in social work may be relaxed by the Admission Committee to the best candidates.

Explanation: 

The statement says that if the candidate is best then required or prior experience can be reduced for his admission in MA(social Work).

Conclusion:

I. Some students of MA (Social Work) will have prior experience of social work.

Those students who are not best will have to take prior experience.

So, Conclusion I is follows.

II. Some MA (Social Work) students will not have prior experience in social work.

The top students will not be having prior experience.

So, Conclusion I is follows.

As it can be seen both statements are true.

Therefore, the correct answer should be "Conclusion I and Conclusion II both follow."

Conclusion I is true.

LEDs also require much less energy to create the same amount of brightness as incandescent lights.

LED bulbs provide more brightness over incandescent bulbs.

Conclusion II is true.

LED bulbs use LED technology which brings down energy bills and are more eco-friendly over incandescent bulbs.

Hence, both I and II follow.

Conclusions:

I. God can be found only in temples " False (as the word ‘only’ is criticizing the given assumption as it is given that ‘some’ people believe that God is in temples.)

II. God is everywhere " False (as statement cant conclude God is everywhere)

I. The quality of the restaurant’s food will improve.

It cannot be concluded as nothing related to quality improvement of food is said.

II. All restaurants have to be renovated when their furniture becomes old.

The information does not states that all restaurants have to be renovated.

Hence, neither I nor II follows.

X is beautiful and she can marry a politician or not. It is her choice.

For this question,

Statements: The money plant has thin leaves and requires more water.

This statement explains the requirements and speciality of the Money plant.

Conclusion I: Plants with thin leaves require more water..

It can not be true as the statement is all about the Money plants but except for money plants, there are more plants that have thin leaves.

Conclusion II: Money plants cannot be grown in places with water scarcity.

It is completely according to the statement as it is true.

Hence, Option (4) is correct.

Additional Information

• If there are two or more sentences that are used to frame a statement, then, the sentences must be interrelated, and mutual contradiction should be there.
• Do not look for truthful notions. The information provided in the statement is the only requirement for a student to answer the question. No assumptions must be made.
• Read the statement carefully and look for keywords that are common between the statement and the conclusions
• If there is more than one conclusion that is applicable to the statement, students must ensure that the conclusions they opt for have some relation with each other.

Given:-

Statement: "Until our country achieves economic equality and political freedom, democracy would be meaningless."

This statement implies that for democracy to have meaning, both economic equality and political freedom are required.

Conclusion I: "Political freedom and democracy go hand in hand." → The statement suggests that political freedom is necessary for democracy. Therefore, it can be inferred that political freedom and democracy are closely linked, or "go hand in hand."

Conclusion II: "Economic equality and political freedom are related to each other." → The statement explicitly mentions that both economic equality and political freedom are prerequisites for meaningful democracy. Thus, it implies a relationship between economic equality and political freedom.

Therefore, both conclusions logically follow from the statement:

So, the correct answer is Both I and II follow.
