Statement: The city bus transport corporation has decided to change routes of three buses plying between paints A and B in the city to make them economically viable.
Assumptions:
- These buses may get more passengers on the revised routes.
- Many people residing on the old routes may not avail bus services.
Answer: Option
Explanation:
The statement mentions that the routes have been so changed as to make them economically viable. This means that new stoppages have been so selected as to cater to a larger number of people than before. So, I is implicit. Further, the people already travelling by these buses would not be devoid of the same and they would also get the facility in their vicinity, be it the same bus or another one. So, II is not implicit.
