Matrix-Match Type
This section contains 2 questions. Each question contains statements given in
two columns, which have to be matched. The statements in Column I are
labelled A,B,C and D, while the statements in Column II are labelled p,q,r,s
and t. Any given statement in column I can have correct matching with ONE
OR MORE statement(s) in Column II.
