Asked in Premeth Test 46 — ElectrochemistryModerate

In this question, a statement is given followed by two courses of action numbered I and II. It is required to grasp the statement, analyze the problem or policy it mentions and then decide which of the courses of action logically follow / most appropriate.Statement:The vegetable traders feel that the prices of onions will again go up shortly in the state A.Courses of action:I) The 'A' state government should purchase and store a sufficient quantity of onion in advance to control price.II) The 'A' state government should make an available network of fair-price shops for the sale of onions during periods of shortage.

Correct answer: E. If both I and II follow

  • A. If only I follows
  • B. If only II follows
  • C. If either I or II follows
  • D. If neither I nor II follows
  • E. If both I and II follow

Explanation

The correct answer is Option E: If both I and II followCourse of Action I suggests that the state government should proactively purchase and store onions. This can help manage supply levels and prevent a significant price increase when shortages occur. Course of Action II suggests setting up fair-price shops, which would help ensure that onions are sold at an affordable price during shortages. Both actions together would address both the supply and pricing issues effectively. Implementing only one of these actions might not fully stabilize the market, making both necessary for comprehensive control. Hence, both actions are needed, and therefore, Option E is correct.
