Question and options
A statement is given followed by two conclusions I and II. Choose the correct answer.

Any young man, who makes dowry as a condition for marriage, disrespects himself and dishonor womanhood.
Conclusions:
I. Those who take dowry in marriage should be condemned by the society.
II. Those who do not take dowry in marriage respect womanhood.
- Only conclusion I follows
- Only conclusion II follows
- Both conclusions I and II follow
- Neither conclusion I nor conclusion II follows
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: A - Only conclusion I follows
If demanding dowry disrespects oneself and dishonours womanhood, such people deserve social condemnation (I follows). II is the inverse (not taking dowry does not by itself mean respecting womanhood), so it does not follow.
