    Assumption
    I. There are demands for his resignation.
    II.There are some charges leveled against the politician.
    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: E

If there were no demands for resignation, why would the politician say,'' I will not resign'' ? Hence I is implicit . Again, he talks of being proved guilty. A proof of guilty comes only after the levelling of charges. Hence II is implicit.
