RRB NTPC 2025 Graduate CBT 2 Question Paper PDF (10-Jul-2026) (Shift 1)
The correct answer is

Only conclusion (I) follows

From the statements, all shackets are hats, and some shackets are also caps.

Conclusion (I): The shackets that are caps are themselves hats (since all shackets are hats). So those caps are hats, meaning some hats are caps. Therefore (I) follows.

Conclusion (II): We know only that some shackets are caps; there may be caps that are not shackets at all. So we cannot say all caps are shackets. Hence (II) does not follow.

Hence, only conclusion (I) follows.
