Given below is statement followed by two conclusion numbered I and II. You have to assume everything in the statement to be true and decide which of them logically follow(s) from the statement beyond a reasonable doubt from the information given in the statement. Statement: In all developing countries, population is increasing. All developing countries are facing shortage of drinking water. Conclusion I: In all developing countries, if population decreases, then per person availability of drinking water will rise if availability of drinking water is fixed. Conclusion II: In some developing countries, population could be decreasing, yet they will have shortage of drinking water. Correct Answer Only conclusion I follows

It is given that population is increasing in ‘all’ developing countries. Therefore, conclusion II stands invalid.

The statement implies that the increase in the population is the cause of the shortage of drinking water in developing countries.

Therefore, we can conclude that if the population decreases and the water availability remains the same, then per person availability of water can increase.

Hence, only conclusion I follows.
