Directions : In each of the following questions a statement is given, followed by two conclusions. Give answer : Statement : In view of the violent situation due to students’ agitation the state government has decided to close down all the educational institutions in the state for two weeks with immediate effect. Assumptions : I. The students’ agitation may subside after two weeks. II. The students may not find a place to come further and continue agitation after the closure of the educational institutions.

Only assumption I is implicit
Only assumption II is implicit
Either I or II is implicit
Neither I nor II is implicit E. Both I and II are implicit

The correct answer is: C. Either I or II is implicit

The statement says that the state government has decided to close down all the educational institutions in the state for two weeks with immediate effect. This means that the government believes that closing down the educational institutions will help to reduce the violence.

Assumption I is that the students’ agitation may subside after two weeks. This is a logical assumption, as it is likely that the students will become less agitated if they are not able to continue their protests.

Assumption II is that the students may not find a place to come further and continue agitation after the closure of the educational institutions. This is also a logical assumption, as the students will not be able to gather at the educational institutions if they are closed.

However, it is also possible that the students’ agitation will not subside after two weeks, or that they will find other places to gather and continue their protests. Therefore, both assumptions are implicit in the statement.
