Statement: A recent study shows that children below five die in the cities of the developing countries mainly from diarrhoea and parasitic intestinal worms.
Courses of Action:
- Governments of the developing countries should take adequate measures to improve the hygienic conditions in the cities.
- Children below five years in the cities of the developing countries need to be kept under periodic medical check-up.
Answer: Option
Explanation:
Clearly, the two diseases mentioned are caused by unhygienic conditions. So, improving the hygienic conditions is a step towards their eradication. Also, periodic medical check-up will help timely detection of the disease and hence a proper treatment. So, both I and II follow.

Statement 2 does not follow as it is not possible for state to check every child below 5 years.

The Second condition is not correct. It says student below 5 that does not mean every student. You cannot just go check every 5 or less year old child.

2 course of action may not be feasible for a country of size of India.
