Q.

Statement: Should administrative officers be transferred after one or two years?
Arguments:
I.Yes. They get friendly with local people and are manipulated by them.
II.No. By the time their policies and schemes start taking shape, they have to leave.
III.No. This will create a lot of administrative hassles and cause a lot of inconvenience to the officers.                         
A. Only II is strong B. Only I and II are strong
C. Only II and III are strong D. Only I and III are strong

Answer: Option C
Explaination:

 


Clearly, the acquaintance of administrative officers with the local people poses no harm. So, argument I is vague. However, both II and III hold strong, because making transfers too often would neither give them enough time to settle down comfortably in a new place, nor enable them to formulate and implement their policies in toto. This would also be administratively impossible.
