  • Question
  • Statement: The integrated steel plants in India would no longer have to depend on imports for continuous casting refractories.

    Assumptions:

    1. Continuous casting refractories are needed by India.
    2. Continuous casting refractories are in demand.


  • Options
  • A. Only assumption I is implicit
  • B. Only assumption II is implicit
  • C. Either I or II is implicit
  • D. Neither I nor II is implicit
  • E. Both I and II are implicit

  • Correct Answer
  • Both I and II are implicit 

    Explanation
    The statement mentions the self-sufficiency of India in continuous casting refractories. This means that they are needed in the country. So, I is implicit. Since continuous casting refractories are needed in integrated steel plants, it means they are in demand. So, II is implicit.
