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? Statement: India’s economy is heavily dependent on agriculture. Inferences: I. The government is only providing subsidies to the farmers to improve the economic conditions and not for their welfare as the main goal. II. Agriculture is the most productive sector in India. Correct Answer <p>Only inference I follows</p>
Given that agriculture determines the economic health of India it can be safely inferred that the government’s interest lies in providing subsidies to improve agriculture so it can in return improve the economy. However, none of the information provided suggests that the agricultural sector is actually doing well. Therefore, only inference I can be made making option 1 the correct answer.
