Choose the appropriate code for the Assertion (A) and Reason (R) as given below :

Assertion (A) : War finances are the main backbone of a warring nation without which it cannot think of winning a war.
Reason (R) : Defence Economics is new academic discipline for defence researchers and economists.
Codes :

  • A.(A) is false, but (R) is true.
  • B.(A) is true, but (R) is false.
  • C.Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is not the correct explanation of (A).
  • D.Both (A) and (R) are false.

Answer: C

Both statements are true, but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A). Finance is the backbone of a warring nation, since a state that cannot pay for armies and arms cannot sustain a war, so (A) is true. Defence economics is a fairly new academic discipline, so (R) is true.

That the discipline is new does not explain why war finance matters, so (R) is no explanation of (A). The options calling (A) false or (R) false are wrong, and so is the one calling both false.
