Question

Given below are two statements:
Statement (I): Garden suburbs are nothing but satellite townships developed among parks and avenues.
Statement (II): In the old congested cities, bio-aesthetic planning can be achieved by developing garden suburbs on the outskirts of the city easily approachable by vehicles.
In light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below.

• A. Both Statement (I) and Statement (II) are true.
• B. Both Statement (I) and Statement (II) are false.
• C. Statement (I) is true but Statement (II) is false.
• D. Statement (I) is false but Statement (II) is true.

Hint:

Garden Suburbs: Planned communities on city outskirts, combining urban amenities with ample green spaces (parks, avenues) - like satellite towns. (Statement I is True)
Bio-aesthetic Planning for Congested Cities: Developing such garden suburbs on the periphery is a way to introduce green, aesthetically pleasing environments for urban populations. (Statement II is True)

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

Step 1: Garden suburbs originate from the Garden City idea, self-contained satellite townships built around parks and avenues (Statement I).
Step 2: Old, congested cities cannot be greened internally, so bio-aesthetic planning is pushed to vehicle-accessible suburbs on the outskirts (Statement II).
Step 3: Both statements describe the same planning concept from different angles.
Step 4: Both statements are true, so the answer is option (1).
