Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

I. Not-Implicit: Not directly related to the statement. The statement shows that author points out at "underutilization" of the bridge. No where it is mentioned that such bridges don.t serve "any" public objective. II. Implicit: Root Cause. The citizen must have kept in mind the accountability and the utility of money spent, that is why he complaints about the underutilization.
