ReasoningDirection & DistanceFactual singleEasy

Question

A Statement is given followed by two Conclusions numbered I and II. Consider the Statement and the Conclusions. Statement: India is the world's largest producer of milk. Conclusion-I: India is the world's largest exporter of milk. Conclusion-II: India does not import milk. Which one of the following is correct?

Options

a

Only Conclusion-I follows

b

Only Conclusion-II follows

c

Both Conclusion-I and Conclusion-II follow

d

Neither Conclusion-I nor Conclusion-II follows

Answer

Explanation

The premise only establishes a single fact: India's global rank in milk production.

Production volume does not dictate or explain trade distributions (imports and exports) directly. A country can be the top producer but still consume its entire yield domestically, requiring imports or leaving zero excess for export. Neither Conclusion I [cite: 2018, 2019] nor Conclusion II [cite: 2021, 2022] logically follows from the production metric alone.

Avoid choosing trade logic conclusions (import/export data) if the underlying statement provides only volume or processing metrics.

Answer: (d).
