Statements: People who speak too much against dowry are those who had taken it themselves.

  2. People have double standards.
Only conclusion I follows
Only conclusion II follows
Either I or II follows
Neither I nor II follows

Conclusion II states the people which generalizes everybody. But in the statement discussion is only about people who speak too much against dowry.

II will be answer because they mention ''too much'' means expressing that they are completely against it but they are not.

Its clearly stated that they have taken dowry, why would it be difficult to do for them?
