Statement: The Principal instructed all the teachers to be careful in class because some students may disturb other students.
Assumptions:
- The teachers will handle the situation properly and they will point out the naughty students.
- The students will welcome the decision of the Principal.
Answer: Option
Explanation:
Clearly, teachers have been instructed to maintain discipline in the class and point out the naughty students who do not let other students study. So, I is implicit. Besides, the implementation of the instructions would surely help good students to concentrate on their studies and ensure a good working atmosphere in the class. So, II is also implicit.

I: We don't know if teachers will handle the situation properly. Because we know nothing about teachers and school.
II: We don't know anything about students.
[D] Neither I nor II is implicit
There are just too many possibilities. Lazy teachers, maybe the Principal has terrible reputation among students, maybe teachers will abuse principal decision.
II: We don't know anything about students.
[D] Neither I nor II is implicit

This decision will surely be welcomed by the good students which comprise only a part of the students community. However, the assumption talks about all the students. Hence assumption II is not implicit.

Assumption must be the one that is uderstood on reading the ststement.
But here there is no relevant clue whether the students know about any such orders by the principal.
2nd in surely not implicit.

Assumption II is not implicit as information about student principal relation is not mentioned. So how can we conclude that students will accept the principal's decision.

In II its mentioned "students" not "good students". Obviously the bad students will not welcome it.

@Ravneet
Just think you are a good student, if one of your classmate disturbs all in your class including you frequently.
Now the the teacher handles this situation based on the instruction of the Principal. Don't you welcome the decision of the principal now?
But the problem here is - If you are the one who disturbs others, in this case Assumption-II not follows. :-)
Have a nice day friend!
