Direction: In each question below is given a statement followed by two assumptions numbered I and II. An assumption is something supposed or taken for granted. You have to consider the statement and the following assumptions and decide which of the assumptions is implicit in the statement.

  1. Statement:
    "Our state does not need State Human Rights Commission, therefore we have abolished State Human Rights Commision." - CM of state 'X'
    Assumptions:
    I. There will be no cases of violation of human rights in state 'X'.
    II. State 'X' has alternative provision to tackle cases of human rights violation.
    1. if only assumption I is implicit.
    2. if only assumption II is implicit.
    3. if either I or II is implicit.
    4. if neither I nor II is implicit.
    5. if both I and II are implicit
Correct Option: C

It is not clear from the statement what the CM is exactly assuming. But the tone of the statement implies he must be assuming either I or II.
