Both arguments are strong. Solution: The statement poses a simple question about adopting the same national curriculum which includes all subjects for students across India Argument I agrees to the move and suggests all subjects should remain compulsory till the 12th grade because most of the students opt for courses under parental or peer influence. This means they may not be in a state to take the right decisions so all the subjects should be taught to them and they may decide later. Therefore, argument I is strong. Argument II disagrees with the move and suggests that if this is done then it would cause an extra burden on students forcing them to study the subjects that they intend to drop later or discontinue. Therefore, argument II is also strong. Hence, option 4 is correct.
