Statement: Unemployment allowance should be given to all unemployed Indian youth above 18 years of age.

Assumptions:

  1. There are unemployed youth in India who needs monetary support.

Only assumption II is implicit
Either I or II is implicit
Neither I nor II is implicit

But if government doesn't have fund then they won't propose the idea of giving the fund to youth so according to me it should be B.

Assumption 2 can be implicit because Government can provide unemployment allowance only when it has sufficient funds.

In the statement: All unemployed youth above 18 given, but in assumption 1: needy youth.

If the govt thinks it should provide unemployment allowance it means it has sufficient funds, right?

Implicit stand for correctness. Or it actually says that this statement is correct.
