Solution

The correct option is A
None is implicit

The step taken by municipal corporation aims at providing good entertainment for local residents during the holidays. No doubts, the municipal corporation must be assuming that local residents will take part in it to enjoy. Assumptions I and II go against this assumption and hence they are not valid. Assumption III is also not implicit because of the word ‘only’.
