Statement The police have failed to protect the elderly citizens of society. Only last week three old persons were killed at three different places.

Courses of Action

I. The police should be asked to take special care of women and children.
II. The Government should bring legislation against the killing of elderly people.
III. Criminals who are accused of killing elderly people should be prosecuted by the state. 

विकल्प

• Only I follows

• Only II follows

• Only Ill follows

• None follows

Answer 1

None follows

Explanation:

I am invalid as the given statement talks about elderly people and not women and children. II and III are proper courses of action, yet they do not follow because such provisions are already there. In fact, killing elderly people is a punishable offence under section 300 and 302 of IPC while murderers, as a rule, are projected by the state. Therefore, II and III are not new suggestions. In fact, they are already in practice. Hence, I, II, and III all are invalid.
