Which of the following negates the given statement?

(I) The authority’s report also has detailed guidelines for museums on the systems that need to be put in place to tackle different kinds of threats.

(II) The first-of-its-kind analysis by the National Disaster Management Authority (NDMA) of the threats shows that India’s museums face terrorism; climate-related events such as floods, earthquakes and tsunamis; and vandalism.

(III) Climate-related issues such as floods, earthquakes are not a matter of concern for Indian Heritage.

Accepted Answer

**Solution:**

1. Statement (I) supports the original statement because it mentions that the authority’s report provides detailed guidelines for museums to handle various threats, which aligns with the idea that disaster management systems protect heritage.

2. Statement (II) also supports the original statement as it highlights that the NDMA's analysis identifies terrorism and climate-related events like floods and earthquakes as threats to museums, consistent with the claim that disaster management can safeguard heritage from such risks.

3. Statement (III) contradicts the original statement by claiming that climate-related issues such as floods and earthquakes are not concerns for Indian heritage, which negates the idea that disaster management systems can protect heritage from climate changes.
