Question

In the question a statement is given followed by two arguments numbered I and II. Mark the answer as:
Statement: Should mass media be fully controlled by the government?
Argument I: Yes, a variety of news only confuse people.
Argument II: No, controlled news loses credibility.

Options

• If only argument I is strong

• If only argument II is strong

• If both the arguments are strong

• If neither I nor II is strong

Answer 1

In democracy, there is freedom of expression and right to information. The 2nd argument is strong. Also, controlled news means the right to information is infringed. Argument I is out of scope as variety does not confuse the people.
The 2nd argument is strong.
