Statement: Should India go in for computerization in all possible sectors?

Arguments:

  1. Yes. It will bring efficiency and accuracy in the work.
  2. No. It will be an injustice to the monumental human resources which are at present underutilized.
  3. No. Computerization demands a lot of money. We should not waste money on it.
  4. Yes. When advanced countries are introducing computers in every field, how can India afford to lag behind?

Only I is strong
Only I and II are strong
Only I and III are strong
Only II and III are strong
All are strong
Answer: Option
Explanation:
Clearly, the need of today is to put to better use the underutilized human resources. Computers with better and speedy efficiency can accomplish this. So, argument I holds, while II does not. Computerization is a much beneficial project and investment in it is not at all a waste. So, III is not strong. Further, development in a new field is not a matter of merely following up other countries. So, IV also does not hold strong.
