Statement: Should India give away Kashmir to Pakistan?
Arguments:
- No. Kashmir is a beautiful state. It earns a lot of foreign exchange for India.
- Yes. This would help settle conflicts.
Answer: Option
Explanation:
Clearly, India cannot part with a state that is a major foreign exchange earner to it. So, argument I holds strong. Further, giving away a piece of land unconditionally and unreasonably is no solution to settle disputes. So, argument II is vague.

But due to this many terrorist attacks are going on in India and many are losing their lives. But we cant accept giving the land easily without any reason. It makes many countries misunderstand that we are coward people.
