Correct answer: C. Statement I is true but Statement II is falseकथन I सत्य है, किंतु कथन II असत्य है
Explanation
Statement I is true: the universal relation (vyāpti) in the major premise cannot be directly perceived, so it is established through repeated observation of agreement and difference – an inductive process. Statement II is false: Indian logic does not treat induction separately; it is part of the theory of inference (anumāna), which is deductive-cum-inductive. Hence Statement I is true but Statement II is false.कथन I सत्य है: प्रमुख आधार-वाक्य की सार्वभौमिक व्याप्ति का प्रत्यक्ष नहीं हो सकता, इसलिए अन्वय और व्यतिरेक के बार-बार निरीक्षण – अर्थात आगमन – द्वारा इसे स्थापित किया जाता है। कथन II असत्य है: भारतीय तर्कशास्त्र आगमन का अलग निरूपण नहीं करता; यह अनुमान के सिद्धांत का ही अंग है, जो निगमनात्मक-सह-आगमनात्मक है। अतः कथन I सत्य है, किंतु कथन II असत्य है।More Logical Reasoning questions
