Statement — “A leading NGO decided to open a library with books and newspapers of major publishers in a remote village.” Assumptions: I. All nearby villages already have similar libraries. II. There is an adequate number of literate people in the village.

Introduction / Context:Establishing a library presupposes sufficient potential users (literate readers). It does not depend on what neighboring villages possess.

Given Data / Assumptions:

• Statement: Open a library with broad coverage of publishers in a remote village.
• Assumption I: Neighboring villages already have libraries.
• Assumption II: The target village has enough literate people to benefit.

Concept / Approach:An action becomes reasonable when its intended beneficiaries exist; hence II is necessary. I describes external parity and is irrelevant to the action’s viability.

Step-by-Step Solution:1) Identify the intended users: literate villagers → need sufficient numbers.2) Neighboring infrastructure does not determine this decision’s logic.

Verification / Alternative check:Even if no nearby village has a library, establishing the first one still makes sense given literacy.

Why Other Options Are Wrong:Only I/Either/Both: insert unnecessary assumptions. Neither: ignores the minimal user-base requirement.

Common Pitfalls:Assuming decisions are based on regional parity rather than local need.

Final Answer:Only Assumption II is implicit.
