Explanation:

Argument I calls for continuing an official custom just for the sake of it. It does not give any other concrete reason for continuing the routine transfer of sub- inspectors or. It is not necessary that it is right to practice a ‘routine administrative matter’. Argument II on the other hand, talks about transfers leading to a lot of government expenditure and causing inconvenience to many as compared to the benefits it yields. Now a government should continue or discontinue a practise on the basis of the output yielded. Certainly, if continuing a practice yields better outcome than discontinuing it, the practise should be continued. The concern, thus, should not be the expenditure, procedure or convenience of the people involved in the process. Hence, neither of the statements is strong enough to support the given statement.

Hence, option 4 is the correct answer.
