Sunita isn't industrious at all because from the given statement we can't conclude that Sunita is industrious. She has a busy schedule but this doesn't mean that she is industrious. So 2nd conclusion is at once rejected. As far as the 1st conclusion is concerned, it is already mentioned that all organised person find time to rest.
So Sunita, which is also finding time for rest, must be an organized woman.
So only conclusion 1 should follow.
So Sunita, which is also finding time for rest, must be an organized woman.
So only conclusion 1 should follow.

According to me, she may be unorganized woman and still finds time to rest and she may not be industrious it does not mention what she is undertaking or doing so her schedule might be busy but not her do only so only option a is correct.

I'm looked up industrious to make sure I had a clear understanding of the word and I found it to mean "diligent and hardworking". Just because Sunita has a busy schedule does not infer that she is "diligent and hardworking".

Organised people find time to rest. But there is no statement that unorganised will not find time to rest. Sunitha can be organised or might be lazy also. The Only thing that we can deduce is that she finds time to rest.

No, Answer is wrong according to me.
Sunita is not an industrious and organized human she can take rest it is not possible because she has no clear taking about.
So, Answer is neither nor.

The answer is Nor. "All the organised persons find time for rest" doesn't imply that all the people that rest are organised. Then, there is no condition to define an industrious person.

I was going to comment that she could be busy not necessarily industrious, but I didn't get the meaning of the word right so. You were correct, I was wrong.

Logically all organised people find time to rest. But People who find time to rest need not be organised. So sunitha need not be organised.
