Statement: Should there be reservation in Government jobs for candidates from single child family? Arguments: I. No. This is not advisable as the jobs should be offered to only deserving candidates without any reservation for a particular group. II. Yes. This will help reduce the growing population in India as the parents will be encouraged to adopt single child norm.

The Government has already made provisions for reservation of jobs for the economically backward sections, which is a must. So, abolishing the practice of reservation altogether has no meaning. Thus, argument I is vague. Also, more reservations would lead to non-recruitment of many more deserving candidates. Besides, such a reservation, if implemented, will cater to the job requirements of only a small section of population and not a major part of it. So, argument II also does not hold strong.
