Either I or II follows
Neither I nor II follows

I think the Statement 1 has to be the course of Action and not a conclusion.

In the 1st statement, it was mentioned about improving the standard of the school not about improving the standard of the education both are different. Can anyone clarify that statement follows.

I say it is D, The Statment Says Only About Standard Education Only Not About Other Things.
Shiva said:   4 years ago
Yeah, the conclusion should not be an opinion, if that opinion is not mentioned in the Statement. Because everyone's perspective will be different.

Here they are asking for the conclusion and not any course of action, the answer should be D.
Vidya said:   6 years ago
Yes, I think the answer should be neither I nor II follows.
