Direction: In each question below is given a statement followed by two assumptions numbered I and II. You have to consider the statement and the following assumptions and decide which of the given assumptions is implicit in the statement.

  1. Statement:
    Kartik left for Delhi on Tuesday by train to attend a function to be held on Friday at his uncle's house in Delhi.
    Assumptions
    I. Kartik may reach Delhi on Wednesday.
    II. Kartik may reach Delhi before Friday.
    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: B

Clearly, it cannot be deduced as to which day Kartik would reach Delhi. But Kartik has left for Delhi to attend a function to be held on Friday. So, he must have planned his journey to reach Delhi before Friday. Thus, only II is implicit.
