Answer: Option D
Explanation:
It is not necessary that any practice which
has been in vogue for a long time is right and it must be continued. So,
argument I is not strong. Also, a practice must be continued or discontinued in
view of its merits/demerits and not on grounds of the expenditure or procedures
it entails. The policy of transfer is generally practised to do away with
corruption, which is absolutely essential. So, argument II also does not hold.
