Answer: Option B
Explanation:
Clearly, capability is an essential criteria
for a profession and reservation cannot ensure capable workers. So, neither I
nor III holds strong. However, making one caste more privileged than the other
through reservations would hinder the objectives of a classless society. So,
argument II holds strong.
