Statement: It is through participative management policy alone that indiscipline in our industries can be contained and a quality of life ensured to the worker. Assumptions: Quality of life in our industries is better. Indiscipline results in poor quality of life.

Only assumption I is implicit
Only assumption II is implicit
Either I or II is implicit
Neither I nor II is implicit
Both I and II are implicit

Correct Answer: Only assumption II is implicit

Explanation:

The statement mentions that participative management policy 'will' provide quality life to the workers. So, I is not implicit. Clearly, the statement mentions that participative management will contain the indiscipline and ensure quality life to workers. So, II is implicit.
