Obviously first follows, why to breakup which vegetables. As per statement to be considered true then doesn't matter which vegetables so because of less supply and demand it rare commodity. But still available in market and those who affording can eat then so II doesn't follow.

Vegetable prices are soaring all the time in Delhi. This not in anyway refer to the fact that people can't have them as the degree of price hike or the way its affecting society is not mentioned. Although as the price is hiking its becoming a rare commodity. So clearly option 1 only follows.

Even I thought before that first one is implicit but they are saying conclusion and not assumption due to high prices the vegetables will become rare product not necessary.

Definitely say only first assumption is correct. Because vegetables are rare commodity. When demand increases it is a rare commodity. When demand increases the price also increase. (vegetables are soaring in the market).

If vegetables are much quantity available in market then purchaser are in less numbers, automatically it's prices are become very low. The same vice verse, that implicit I is correct.

I think statement 1 follow because it says that vegetable price raising. I think vegetable price raising when it's stoke is very short or production very short in this reason I can say 1 is follow because if people can't eat vegetable as a result of it vegetable stoke getting huge henceforth price getting down. Why price getting up?

In my opinion only conclusion I is correct. Rich people, vegetable vendors and farmers will eat them otherwise the available vegetable will be wasted.
