Statement: Retired persons should not be appointed for executive posts in other organisations.

Assumptions:

1. Retired persons may lack the zeal and commitment to carry out executive's work.

2. Retired persons do not take interest in the work and welfare of the new organisation

Answer: D

Correct answer: Neither I nor II is implicit

Both assumptions are sweeping claims about retired people as a class - that they lack zeal, and that they take no interest in a new employer. A recommendation may rest on age, cost or the case for giving younger people the posts, so neither of these is what it must take for granted. Neither is implicit.
