Statement: Should there be an upper age limit of 65 years for contesting Parliamentary/ Legislative Assembly elections?

Arguments:

1. Yes. Generally, people above the age of 65 lose their dynamism and will power.

2. No. The life span is so increased that people remain physically and mentally active even up to the age of 80.

  • A.Only argument I is strong
  • B.Only argument II is strong
  • C.Either I or II is strong
  • D.Neither I nor II is strong
  • E.Both I and II are strong

Answer: D

Correct answer: Neither I nor II is strong

Argument I rests on a sweeping generalisation about everyone over 65, which is not true of many who serve with distinction. Argument II makes the opposite generalisation about longer life. Neither offers a principle for fixing a limit at that age. Neither is strong.
