Question

    In each question below is given a statement followed by two assumptions numbered I and II. You have to consider the statement and the following assumptions and decide which of the assumptions is implicit in the statement.  Give answer

    In a rare unanimous verdict pronounced by nine judges, the Supreme Court has ruled that privacy is a fundamental right that requires constitutional protection.

    I. Privacy was earlier not considered to be a fundamental right.

    II. Rare unanimous verdicts are always pronounced by a bench of nine judges.

    A If only assumption I is implicit Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B If only assumption II is implicit Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C If either I or II is implicit Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D If neither I nor II is implicit Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E If both I and II are implicit. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Since the ruling that makes privacy as a fundamental right has been introduced by Supreme Court, it means that it wasn’t a fundamental right earlier. Thus I is implicit. Nothing has been mentioned about the trend of bench of judges for unanimous verdicts, thus it is not true for always. Thus, II is not implicit.
