of them strength which of them strengthens or weakens 
the statement. 
 
12. Statement- As an emerging economic superpower, it is 
quite tragic that more than one in three children in 
India are stunted. Stunting is associated with an 
underdeveloped brain, with long-lasting harmful 
consequences, and increased risks of nutrition-related 
chronic diseases, such as diabetes, hypertension, and 
obesity in future. Thus, stunting can be classified by 
itself as an illness as it leads to negatively affecting the 
present and future of the child.  
(I)  Higher economic growth and increased spending 
on nutrition access programme have not resulted 
in proportionate decrease in child malnutrition or 
stunting. 
(II)  Multiple researchers have proven the link between 
illness and malnutrition/ stunting in children. 
(a) Both I and II strengthens   
(b) I strengthen while II weakens   
(c) II strengthens while I weaken 
(d) Statement I strengthen while Statement II is 
neutral.  
(e) Both I and II weakens. 
 
Direction (13): In the following question a statement is 
given followed by three assumptions numbered as I, II and 
III. You have to read all the statements and decide which of 
them follows the argument mentioned in statement. 
 
13. Rooftop solar power growth has demonstrated an 
overall positive trend, But this will need to be scaled up 
massively to achieve the national target.  
 Assumption:  
(I) With ongoing improvements to solar cell 
efficiency and battery technology, rooftops will 
only get more attractive in the future. 
(II) Major solar projects that connect to the grid often 
face the challenge of land acquisition and 
transmission connectivity. 
(III) A survey helps determine usable rooftops, 
separating them from green spaces, and analyses 
the quality of the solar resource. 
 (a) Only II follows  
 (b) Both II and III follows  
 (c) Both I and III follows 
 (d) Only I follows

Direction (12): In the following question a statement is 
given followed by two more statements numbered as I and 
II. You have to read both the statement and decide which 
of them strength which of them strengthens or weakens 
the statement. 
 
12. Statement- As an emerging economic superpower, it is 
quite tragic that more than one in three children in 
India are stunted. Stunting is associated with an 
underdeveloped brain, with long-lasting harmful 
consequences, and increased risks of nutrition-related 
chronic diseases, such as diabetes, hypertension, and 
obesity in future. Thus, stunting can be classified by 
itself as an illness as it leads to negatively affecting the 
present and future of the child.  
(I)  Higher economic growth and increased spending 
on nutrition access programme have not resulted 
in proportionate decrease in child malnutrition or 
stunting. 
(II)  Multiple researchers have proven the link between 
illness and malnutrition/ stunting in children. 
(a) Both I and II strengthens   
(b) I strengthen while II weakens   
(c) II strengthens while I weaken 
(d) Statement I strengthen while Statement II is 
neutral.  
(e) Both I and II weakens. 
 
Direction (13): In the following question a statement is 
given followed by three assumptions numbered as I, II and 
III. You have to read all the statements and decide which of 
them follows the argument mentioned in statement. 
 
13. Rooftop solar power growth has demonstrated an 
overall positive trend, But this will need to be scaled up 
massively to achieve the national target.  
 Assumption:  
(I) With ongoing improvements to solar cell 
efficiency and battery technology, rooftops will 
only get more attractive in the future. 
(II) Major solar projects that connect to the grid often 
face the challenge of land acquisition and 
transmission connectivity. 
(III) A survey helps determine usable rooftops, 
separating them from green spaces, and analyses 
the quality of the solar resource.
