In the questions given below, a statement is followed by if implications I and II An implication is an underlying hint or suggestion that is taken for granted. Give your answer as:
Statement:
A further confirnation by the Finance Minister that the prices of essential items would not be raised was welcome feature for the public.
implications :
I. He proposes to raise prices of luxury items.
II. Some people had doubted the Finance Minister's announcement regarding the stability of prices of essential items.
The statement says:Â A further confirmation by the Finance Minister that the prices of essential items would not be raised was welcome feature for the public.
Implication 1:Â He proposes to raise prices of luxury items. The statement says that the prices of essential items would not be raised, but it does not mention anything about the price of the luxury items. Hence it is not an implicit implication.
Implication 2: Some people had doubted the Finance Minister's announcement regarding the stability of prices of essential items. The statement does not say anything about the people's reaction to the Finance Minister's announcement on the stability of price of essential items. So, we are not sure if they doubted the announcement. Hence this is also not an implicit implication.
Hence, option (C).
