C. Either I or II is implicit D. Neither I nor II is implicit

Answer: Option B
Explaination:

 


Sachin's mother has instructed him as a matter of caution and out of care for her child, and not because Sachin himself would not be able to decide. So, I is not implicit. Besides, Sachin's mother instructs him to take to train journey in case it rains heavily. So, II is implicit.
