Correct option is D
Given :
Decision: In many cities of Country S only hybrid cars are allowed in the centre of the city in order to control pollution. Following the same, Country M has also decided to implement this in some tier-I cities.
Statement 1 : Unlike Country S, public transport is not well connected in most of the tier-I cities in Country M.
Public transport in tier-I cities of Country M is not well connected.
This implies that banning non-hybrid cars could cause inconvenience to the public due to the lack of alternative transport options.
Weakens the decision, as the lack of public transport connectivity makes implementing such restrictions less practical.
Statement 2 : As per recent reports, the biggest contributor of pollution in Country M are transport trucks and two-wheelers.
Transport trucks and two-wheelers are the biggest contributors to pollution in Country M.
This suggests that restricting only non-hybrid cars may not effectively reduce pollution because trucks and two-wheelers, which are not addressed in the decision, are the main culprits.
Weakens the decision, as the policy does not target the primary sources of pollution.
Both statement are weaken decision
Thus, the correct answer is ( d )
