Given below are two statements:
Statement I: An inference which is based on the middle term being only positively related to the major term is called Kevalanvayi.
Statement II: In Kevalanvayi anumana, the knowledge of vyapti between the middle and major terms is arrived at through the method of argument in absence.
In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below:नीचे दो कथन दिए गए हैं:
कथन I: जिस अनुमान में हेतु (मध्य पद) का साध्य (वृहत् पद) के साथ केवल अन्वय संबंध होता है, उसे केवलान्वयी कहते हैं।
कथन II: केवलान्वयी अनुमान में हेतु और साध्य के बीच व्याप्ति का ज्ञान व्यतिरेक (अभाव में तर्क) की पद्धति से प्राप्त होता है।

Correct answer: C. Statement I is true but Statement II is falseकथन I सत्य है, लेकिन कथन II असत्य है
Explanation
In Indian (Nyaya) logic, Kevalanvayi inference is one in which the middle term is related to the major term only by anvaya, agreement in presence — so Statement I is true. Because the major term is all-pervasive here, there is no negative instance available, so vyapti can not be established by vyatireka (argument in absence); that method belongs to Kevalavyatireki. Hence Statement I is true but Statement II is false.भारतीय (न्याय) तर्कशास्त्र में केवलान्वयी अनुमान वह है जिसमें हेतु का साध्य के साथ केवल अन्वय (उपस्थिति में सहगमन) संबंध होता है — अतः कथन I सत्य है। चूँकि यहाँ साध्य सर्वव्यापी है, कोई विपक्ष दृष्टांत उपलब्ध नहीं होता, इसलिए व्याप्ति का ज्ञान व्यतिरेक (अभाव में तर्क) से नहीं हो सकता; वह पद्धति केवलव्यतिरेकी की है। अतः कथन I सत्य, कथन II असत्य।More Logical Reasoning questions
