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

Statement : The two countries have signed a fragile pact, but the vital sovereignty issue remains unresolved.

Assumptions :
I. The two countries cannot have permanent peace pact.
II. The two countries may become hostile again after a short spell of time.

A. Only assumption I is implicit

B. Only assumption II is implicit

C. Either I or II is implicit

D. Neither I nor II is implicit

E. Both I and II are implicit

Answer: Option B

Solution(By Examveda Team)

From the fact that the present pact is not a lasting one, the possibility of a permanent pact cannot be ruled out. So, I is not implicit. The statement mentions that the present pact is a 'fragile' one and the vital sovereignty issue still remains unresolved. So the same issue may rise again in the future. Thus, II is implicit.
