Q1:

Statement: It is through participative management policy alone that indiscipline in our industries can be contained and a quality of life ensured to the worker. Assumptions:
  1. Quality of life in our industries is better.
  2. Indiscipline results in poor quality of life.

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

ANS:B - Only assumption II is implicit

Explanation: The statement mentions that participative management policy 'will' provide quality life to the workers. So, I is not implicit. Clearly, the statement mentions that participative management will contain the indiscipline and ensure quality life to workers. So, II is implicit.
