Question and options

A statement is given followed by two conclusions I and II. Choose the correct answer.
Statement:
Constitution prohibits the employment of children in any organisation.
Conclusions:
I. Organisations must not employ children.
II. Children below the age of 14 years shall be engaged in acquiring education.
  1. Only conclusion I follows
  2. Only conclusion II follows
  3. Both conclusions I and II follow
  4. Neither conclusion I nor conclusion II follows

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: A - Only conclusion I follows
If the Constitution prohibits employing children in any organisation, it follows that organisations must not employ children (I). The statement says nothing about what children should do instead, so II (they shall be engaged in acquiring education) does not follow. Only I follows.
