Statement & Assumption — “In India, the wheels of justice hardly move,” says an American newspaper. Which assumptions are implicit? I. Judicial process in India is dilatory, expensive, and beyond the reach of common people. II. A civilised society needs a prompt judiciary.

Introduction / Context:The remark focuses on pace—“hardly move.” It does not necessarily assert that the system is expensive or inaccessible, nor does it advance a normative principle about what a civilised society requires.

Given Data / Assumptions:

• Claim: very slow judicial movement.
• No explicit claims about cost or accessibility.

Concept / Approach:Assumption I bundles three attributes (slow, expensive, inaccessible). Only slowness is suggested; the rest are extras and thus not necessary. Assumption II (civilised society needs prompt courts) is also not required to criticise slowness; one may note sluggishness without invoking a civilisation benchmark.

Step-by-Step Solution:I: Overstated—expense/reach are independent properties not entailed by pace.II: Normative add-on—unnecessary to support the descriptive criticism.

Why Other Options Are Wrong:“Only I/II” or “either” attribute extra commitments the sentence does not need.

Final Answer:Neither I nor II is implicit.
