Correct Answer: Only conclusion I follows


Solution : Let's analyse the conclusions –
Conclusion (I): The Government understands that the condition of poor farmers needs immediate attention:
→This conclusion follows as the PM announced the annual pension for farmers.
Conclusion (II): No benefits are announced for other sections of society:
→No such information for other sections is provided. So, this conclusion doesn't follow.

So, the only conclusion I follows. Hence, the second option is correct.
