The correct answer is
Both assumptions 1 and 2 are implicit.

Statement Analysis: Indians Seeking Jobs Abroad

The core statement is: "Indians go abroad to get better jobs." This statement implies a reason or motivation behind the action.

Evaluating Implicit Assumptions

We need to determine if the given assumptions are logically necessary for the statement to be true.

Assumption 1: Indians can get better jobs abroad.

The statement says Indians go abroad specifically "to get better jobs". This directly implies a belief or reality that such better jobs are available internationally. If they weren't available, the action of going abroad for them wouldn't make sense. Therefore, this assumption is implicit.

Assumption 2: India lacks better job opportunities.

For individuals to seek better jobs specifically in foreign countries, it is logically implied that the opportunities for such 'better' jobs are either limited or non-existent within India itself. The pursuit of something better elsewhere suggests a deficiency at the origin. Thus, this assumption is also implicit.

Conclusion

Since both assumptions logically support and are necessary for the original statement to hold true, both are considered implicit.

Assumption 1 is implicit because the statement assumes availability.

Assumption 2 is implicit because the statement assumes a lack of comparable opportunities domestically.

Therefore, both assumptions 1 and 2 are implicit.
