The answer is option 4 both are implicit as both the assumptions can be true.

Assumptions 1 is implicit as there are a number of factors that lead to the popularity of a leader such as exceptional work for the people of the country, bringing about remarkable reforms and changes for the betterment of the economy, etc. Thus, some Prime Ministers may be popular and some not be as popular.

Assumptions 2 holds true. The clue is in the words "one of" which implies that in India the number of leaders and ministers is very large.

Hence, "Both assumptions I and II".
