Statements: National Aluminium Company has moved India from a position of shortage to self-sufficiency in the metal.
Conclusions:
- Previously, India had to import aluminium.
- With this speed, it can soon become a foreign exchange earner.
Answer: Option
Explanation:
According to the statement, National Aluminium Company has moved India from a position of shortage in the past to self-sufficiency in the present. This means that previously, India had to import aluminium. So, I follows. Also, it can be deduced that if production increases at the same rate, India can export it in future. So, II also follows.

If we can import, why can't we export. There was shortage earlier, now there is self sufficiency. We imported earlier, in future we can export!

Yes(A) should be the answer because there is no data about the future production of aluminium.

I do agree that II doesnot follow since nothing about the speed or growth is mentioned in the statement.
So please justify the answer.
So please justify the answer.
