A statement is given followed by two inferences I and II. You have to consider the statement to be true even if it seems to be at variance from commonly known facts. You have to decide which of the given inferences, if any, follow from the given statement? The supply of electricity in sectors A and B of the city will be affected by about 50% on Friday because repairing work of the main lines is to be carried out. I. The residents in these wards should complain about this. II. The residents in these wards should economize on electricity. Correct Answer None of the inferences follow

The statement implicitly mentions that the supply of electricity shall be reduced by 50% on a particular day at a particular time. However it cannot be inferred that the residents should complain about this as the warning about the same has already been mentioned. Thus there should be no reason for the residents to complain.

Also, it cannot be inferred that the residents should ‘economize’ on electricity from the above statement because electricity is something that cannot be conserved from beforehand.

Hence, none of the inferences follow.
