Option 1 : It is a type of petroleum with a lower level of Sulfur

The terms sweet and sour are a reference to the sulfur content of crude oil used in the manufacture of petroleum. Crude is currently considered sweet if it contains less than 0.5% sulfur. Sweet crude is easier to refine and safer to extract and transport than sour crude.

Which among the following arguments support the above statement regarding the ‘revision of such laws' in the best possible manner Arguments: I. It seemed to suggest that women were chattel owned by men and could be guided and misguided. II. This would erode the sanctity of marriage as an institution and the societal fabric. The issue of making the provision gender neutral was already pending before the government. III. Any step towards decriminalising the offence in the interim would be detrimental to Indian ethos which gives paramount importance to the institution and sanctity of marriage.?
