Statement:

The pigeon was one of the agents of mail in the past; still in some parts of Orissa pigeon mail is used by the Police department.

Conclusions:

I. The Department Of Post and Telegraph has not made any progress in the last country.

II. The Police must be finding the pigeons more convenient as compared to the other sources of postal delivery.

  • A.if only conclusion I follows.
  • B.if only conclusion II follows
  • C.if either I or II follows.
  • D.if neither I nor II follows

Answer: B

The statement tells us that in the past, pigeons were used to send mail and connects with present day Orissa, where it is still being used by the police department areas. This could be because those areas are not easily accessible to the postal department, or because of the remoteness of the area, sending mails through pigeon is more convenient. It could also be that the police department finds pigeon mails more safe and secure when compared to other ways of sending mail. All in all we can conclude that pigeon mail is still being used because it is superior in some aspects to other ways of sending mail. This is exactly what II states, hence it follows. Just because pigeons are being used in some areas, we cannot conclude that the postal department has not made progress in the last century. Hence I does not follow.
