A. Only assumption I is implicit.
B. Only assumption II is implicit.
C. Either I or II is implicit.
D. Neither I nor II is implicit.
E. Both I and II are implicit.

Answer: Option E

Explanation:

Since a surcharge has been levied to fund drought relief programmes. it follows that the Government does not have sufficient money for the same. So, I is implicit. Besides, the percentage of surcharge must have been decided after studying the expected inflow in relation to amount of funds required, So, II is also implicit.
