Only conclusion I follows
Only conclusion II follows
Either I or II follows
Neither I nor II follows E. Both I and II follow

The correct answer is: Neither I nor II follows.

The statement says that women’s organizations in India have welcomed the amendment of the Industrial Employment Rules 1946 to curb sexual harassment at the workplace. This does not necessarily mean that sexual harassment of women at the workplace is more prevalent in India as compared to other developed countries. It is possible that women’s organizations in India are more vocal about this issue than women’s organizations in other countries. It is also possible that the amendment of the Industrial Employment Rules 1946 is a positive step that will help to reduce sexual harassment of women at the workplace in India.

The statement also does not necessarily mean that many organizations in India will stop recruiting women to avoid such problems. It is possible that organizations in India will take steps to prevent sexual harassment of women at the workplace, such as implementing policies and procedures to address this issue. It is also possible that organizations in India will be more likely to hire women now that there are laws in place to protect them from sexual harassment.

Therefore, neither conclusion I nor conclusion II follows from the statement.
