Correct option is C
Given:
Statement:
Should officers of nationalised banks be transferred after 1 or 2 years?
According to the given information:
Arguments:
I. Yes. They get friendly with local people and are manipulated by them.
This is a weak argument. The fact that officers might get friendly with local people does not necessarily mean they would be manipulated.
II. No. By the time their policies and schemes start taking shape, they have to leave.
This is a strong argument. The argument highlights that the officers need time to implement and see the results of their policies and schemes. If they are transferred too frequently, it might disrupt their work, and the policies might not be effective or fully realized.
III. No. This will create a lot of administrative hassles and cause a lot of inconvenience to the officers.
This is a strong argument. Frequent transfers can indeed lead to administrative challenges, both in terms of continuity and the inconvenience faced by officers. It might also cause confusion and affect productivity. Officers may take time to adjust to new roles or locations, and the process of handling transfers could cause organizational inefficiencies.
Thus, the correct option is (c) Only arguments II and III are strong.
