Directions : In each of the following questions a statement is given, followed by two conclusions. Give answer : Statement : World Health Organisation has decided to double its assistance to various health programmes in India as per-capita expenditure on health in India is very low compared to many other countries. Assumptions : I. The enhanced assistance may substantially increase the per-capita expenditure on health in India and bring it on par with other countries. II. The Government funding is less than adequate to provide medical facilities in India.

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 World Health Organisation has decided to double its assistance to various health programmes in India. This suggests that the WHO believes that its current assistance is not enough to meet the health needs of the Indian population. This, in turn, suggests that the government funding for health in India is less than adequate.

However, the statement does not explicitly say that the government funding is less than adequate. It is also possible that the WHO believes that its current assistance is not enough to meet the health needs of the Indian population because the per-capita expenditure on health in India is very low compared to many other countries.

Therefore, either assumption I or assumption II is implicit in the statement.
