Statement: Should adult education programme be given priority over compulsory education programme?
Arguments:
- No. It will also help in success of compulsory education programme.
- Yes. It will help to eliminate the adult illiteracy.
Answer: Option
Explanation:
Clearly, argument I gives a reason in support of the statement and so it does not hold strong against it. The adult education programme needs to be given priority because it shall eliminate adult illiteracy and thus help in further spread of education. So, only argument II is strong enough.

If the compulsory education is given priority then there would be no need for the adult education as every adult would have received the education.

No, adult education programme should not be prioritised because under compluslory education programme there is a benefit to all students and not just adults.
