Statement: "Government employees, including doctors working in state-run hospitals and dispensaries, have no right- fundamental, legal, moral or equitable- to go on strike."- Supreme Court Assumptions: I. Government employees hold society to ransom by going on strike. II. Strike as a weapon is mostly misused, which results in chaos and total maladministration.

if only assumption I is implicit.
if only assumption II is implicit.
if either I or II is implicit.
if neither I nor II is implicit.

Correct Answer: if neither I nor II is implicit.

Explanation:

The decision of the SC implies that the SC must be assuming the strike by the employee to be detrimental for the society and at the same time it must be dissatisfied with the way of strike. But the word 'ransom' can't be correlated with the statement. Hence, I is not implicit. The same is true for the words 'chaos' and 'total maladministration'.
