Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation:
Statement I explains a valid reason to go against such marriages because it is wrong to encourage anything that jeopardises the health of a person. Hence, (I) is a strong argument.
Statement II is not a valid argument because a custom being followed since a long time does not necessary make it good. Only I is strong.
