Assertion (A) : District Administration is the real strength and power of the State Government.

Reason (R) : "District Administration plays an extremely crucial role in assisting the policy makers in implementing their policies."

Answer the question using the codes given below :

Codes :

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

Answer: A

The key is A: both statements are true and R explains A.

The district is the unit where State policies reach the people. The Collector and the district staff implement the State's land revenue, law and order, development and welfare policies, and they supply the State Government with the information it needs for new policy. That is the sense in which district administration is the State's 'real strength and power' (A), and R states the reason: it plays a crucial role in assisting policy makers by implementing their policies.

R is given in quotation marks, as a line from a textbook, and I could not trace it. The key's reading is the natural one, since R gives the ground for A, and B, C and D each deny a link or a truth that the statements support.
