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 non-vegetarian food be totally banned in our country? Arguments : I. Yes. It is expensive and therefore it is beyond the means of most people in our country. II. No. Nothing should be banned in a democratic country like ours.

Only argument I is strong
Only argument II is strong
Either I or II is strong
Neither I nor II is strong E. Both I and II are strong

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

Argument I is not strong because it is based on the assumption that non-vegetarian food is expensive. However, this assumption is not necessarily true. There are many affordable non-vegetarian food options available, and the cost of non-vegetarian food is not necessarily prohibitive for most people.

Argument II is not strong because it is based on the principle that nothing should be banned in a democratic country. However, this principle is not absolute. There are many things that are banned in democratic countries, such as hate speech and child pornography. Therefore, the argument that non-vegetarian food should not be banned simply because it is a democratic country is not persuasive.

In conclusion, neither argument I nor II is strong.
