Question : 4
Statement:
“I want Multinational Companies (MNCs) to be out of the water business. I don’t mind them in road construction or some other areas.”
— Statement of a waterman while educating the people on the community’s water right
Assumptions:
I. Water is basic to life and the community should own it.
II. The MNCs are on the prowl to buy the rivers.
a) if only assumption I is implicit.
b) if only assumption II is implicit.
c) if either I or II is implicit.
d) if neither I nor II is implicit.
e) if both I and II are implicit.
Answer »Answer: (a)
Since the given statement has been made by the waterman while educating people on the community’s right, the waterman must be assuming indulgence of MNCs in water business as disastrous for the people. Note that the speaker is not averse to indulgence of MNCs in road construction or some other areas. This implies water business has some special importance.
Hence assumption I is implicit. Assumption II is not implicit because the indulgence of MNCs does not necessarily imply that they are going to buy the rivers.

e) If both I and II are implicit.
Answer »Answer: (b)
- INVALID: Not related to the statement. There is no proof in the statement about reaching airport all the time being a necessity
- VALID: Root Cause. Since the author focuses on the fact that because of too many potholes on road X, it is difficult to reach the airport on time shows that there is no other convenient road which can be opted for.

b) if only assumption II is implicit.
c) if either I or II is implicit.
d) if neither I nor II is implicit.
