Directions : Each of the following question consists of a statement followed by two arguments I and II. You have to decide which of the arguments is a STRONG arguments and which is a WEAK Argument. Statement : Should Indian scientists working abroad be called back to India? Arguments : I. Yes. They must serve the motherland first and forget about discoveries, honours, facilities and all. II. No. We have enough talent; let them stay where they want.

The correct answer is: D. Neither I nor II is strong

Argument I is not strong because it appeals to emotion rather than reason. The statement that Indian scientists must “serve the motherland first” is based on the assumption that India is the only place where they can make a difference, which is not necessarily true. There are many other countries where Indian scientists could make significant contributions.

Argument II is not strong because it dismisses the potential contributions of Indian scientists working abroad without providing any evidence to support its claim that India has “enough talent.” It is possible that there are Indian scientists working abroad who could make significant contributions to India, but this argument does not address that possibility.

In conclusion, neither argument I nor II is strong.
