Statement: The concession in rail fares for the journey to hill stations has been cancelled because it is not needed for people who can spend their holidays there.
Assumptions:
- Railways should give concession only to needy persons.
- Railways should not encourage people to spend their holidays at hill stations.
Answer: Option
Explanation:
The statement mentions that concessions should not be given to people who can afford to spend holidays in hill stations. This means they should be given only to needy persons. So, I is implicit. But, II does not follow from the statement and is not implicit.
