II. The parents of the students of private schools of the city may still be eager to pay higher fees.
-
- if only Assumption I is implicit
- if only Assumption II is implicit
- if either Assumption I or II is implicit
- if neither Assumption I nor II is implicit
Correct Option: D
If an instruction is given. it is assumed that it may be followed. Hence, I is invalid. II is also invalid. If at the Government assumes something about the parents, it is to the contrary that the parents may not be able to pay higher fees.
