Option 4 : All except III and I are strong.

The correct answer is option 4, i.e. All except III and I are strong, i.e. Only II is strong.

We first make sure to read the statement carefully and then see what immediate inferences can be drawn based on our first reading. The next step is to look at the arguments given in the options, analyze them and see if they seem relevant with respect to the information/data provided to us. Finally, it is very important to study the question closely.

The above statement deals with the fact that there is a need to strengthen digital payments and the lack of ATMs have been disastrous.

Since we don’t have any option such as ‘None is strong’, thus, we must look for the most suitable option choice from the given options only.

Argument (I) can be rejected as it weakens the given statement. It states that people might accumulate cash if banks don’t improve the ATM infrastructure. It does not support the idea of digital payments.

Argument (III) can also be rejected as it also weakens the statement that digital payments have come to a stay. Thus, it can also be rejected.

Argument (II) can be assumed to be a suitable idea which will help to improve the statement under consideration and thus, it looks like a suitable argument that supports the idea stated.

Thus, option 4 captures the correct arguments that support the statement in the best possible manner and is our answer choice. Hence, the rest of the options can be rejected.
