Indian Society: Challenges of Cultural Diversity

Question:

Two statements are given, one is labelled as Assertion (A) and the other as Reason (R):
Assertion (A) :Adopting the policy of cultural diversity is good for a nation-state.
Reason (R) : Subordinated communities will not feel alienated in such a policy.

Options:

Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation for (A)

Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is not the correct explanation for (A)

(A) is true , but (R) is false

(A) is false but (R) is true

Correct Answer:

Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation for (A)

Explanation:

The assertion and the reason are both true, and the reason provides a correct explanation for the assertion. Cultural diversity as a policy is considered beneficial for a nation-state because it recognizes and accommodates the diversity within the population, promoting inclusivity and social harmony. The reason complements the assertion by highlighting that in such a policy, subordinated communities are less likely to feel alienated, contributing to a more cohesive and integrated society.
