Statement: The killer entric fever has so far claimed 100 lives in some tribal villages in M.P. during the past three weeks.

Courses of Action:

  1. The residents of these villages should immediately be shifted to a non-infected area.
  2. The Government should immediately send a medical squad to this area to restrict spread of the killer disease.

Only I follows
Only II follows
Either I or II follows
Neither I nor II follows
Both I and II follow
Answer: Option

Clearly, I is vague because if infected people are shifted to a non-infected area, the infection will spread there as well The remedy is only to fight the disease and restrict its spread. So, only II follows.

But there is not mentioned that any infected person in the village so why not both 1 and 2 should be followed.

1 is not vague because residents of the village is written not the infected people of the region.
