In this question, a statement is followed by two courses of action, numbered I and II. You must assume everything in the statement to be true and on the basis of the information given in the statement, decide which of the course of action/s logically follows for pursuing.
Statement: Many people have complained to the Finance Ministry regarding a delay in receiving refunds of their Income Tax returns.
Courses of action:
I. The Finance Ministry must institute an enquiry into the complaints received regarding delay in income tax refunds.
II: The Finance Ministry must compensate the income tax payees by paying interest on their refunds for the duration of the delay.
1.Both I and II follow
2.Only I follow
3.Neither I nor II follow
4.Only II follow
Correct Answer : 1
Solution :
Course of Action I logically follows as it addresses the root issue - delay in refunds - by suggesting an enquiry to understand and resolve the problem. Course of Action II, though fair in principle, assumes compensation without first identifying the cause or accountability.
So, Both I and II follow.
