Statements: 1: All hill stations have an echo-point. 2: P is a hill station. Conclusions: 1: P has an echo-point. 2: Places other than hill stations do not have echo-points. Correct Answer Only conclusion 1 follows
Conclusions:
1: P has an echo-point.
Conclusion 1 follows. All hill stations have an echo-point and P is a hill station, which clearly means P has an echo-point as P is a hill station and all hill stations have an echo-point.
2: Places other than hill stations do not have echo-points.
Conclusion 2 does not follows. The statements do no mentions whether places other than hill stations have an echo-point or not.
Hence, only conclusion 1 follows.
