Question 16

In the question given below a statement along with three assumptions are given. An assumption is something supposed to be taken for granted. Find out which assumptions are implicit in the given statement.
Statement: Newly inducted ministers were advised to comment carefully so that public doesn’t question the abilities of the government.
Assumption:
I - Public have no trust in the government.
II - Commenting carefully will help win next elections.
III - The newly inducted ministers were inexperienced.

Based on the given statements we cannot assume that public has no trust in government. Also, we cannot assume whether commenting carefully helps in winning elections. Further experience level of the ministers also cannot be assumed. Thus all the three assumptions are not implicit.
Thus, D is the correct choice.
