Q1:

Statement: The availability of imported fruits has increased in the indigenous market and so the demand for indigenous fruits has been decreased. Courses of Action:
  1. To help the indigenous producers of fruits, the Government should impose high import duty on these fruits, even if these are not of good quality.
  2. The fruit vendors should stop selling imported fruits. So that the demand for indigenous fruits would be increased.

A Only I follows

B Only II follows

C Either I or II follows

D Neither I nor II follows

E Both I and II follow

ANS:D - Neither I nor II follows

Explanation: The ideas suggested in both I and II represent unfair means to cut competition. The correct way would be to devise methods and techniques such that the indigenous producers could produce better quality fruits and make them available in the market at prices comparable with those of the imported ones. Hence, neither I nor II follows.
