Answer : Option C
Explanation :
We cannot be sure that Ram's friend did not receive the letter. There may other reasons for the delay in the reply. The time to reach the letter to his friend is also not mentioned in the statement, so II and III are not implicit. It seems from the statement that Ram's friend usually responds immediately to his letters and that is why after not receiving the reply Ram again wrote a letter. So, only I is implicit.
