Statement and Assumption
?

Directions : In each of the following questions a statement is given, followed by two conclusions. Give answer :

Statement : Cases of food poisoning due to consumption of liquor are increasing in rural areas.

Assumptions :
I. Percentage of people consuming liquor is more in rural areas.
II. There are many unauthorized spurious liquor shops in the rural areas.

Answer & Solution
Correct Answer: Option B
The statement talks of number of cases of food poisoning due to consumption of liquor and not of the number of cases consuming liquor. So, I is not implicit. Besides, the statement indicates that people in rural areas are getting spurious or low-grade liquor and no check is being kept on shops selling liquor there. So, II is implicit.
