In assumption 1 it is mentioned people does not tolerate poor services means people complained against it but in statement it is clear that they did not complain.

Then how option a is correct? Please explain it.

If the meaning of commutators is the public than your assumption should be,
Generally people tolerate poor services up to some extent.
It is very difficult to correct any Indian service by complaining.
