Read the following scenario and answer the THREE questions that follow.

Mr. Singh lived in a sprawling housing society. He employed two part-time domestic helps, Vimla and Sharda. Vimla was responsible for cleaning and dusting, while Sharda took care of cooking.

Once Sharda fell ill and consequently took leave for three days. When Sharda returned to work, she learned that Mr. Singh’s gold ring, a gift from his mother, was missing. Suspecting theft, Mr. Singh had terminated Vimla. Mr. Singh asked Sharda to take additional responsibility of cleaning the house, along with an offer to double her salary. Sharda accepted the offer as her previous two jobs were lost due to frequent health-related absences. She was struggling to make ends meet; this offer would go a long way to help her.

Next day, while cleaning under the dressing table, Sharda found the gold ring. Overjoyed, Mr. Singh expressed his gratitude by presenting Sharda a reward of one thousand rupees! However, he made no mention of reinstating Vimla.

Question 16 : Sharda was contemplating whether she should inform Vimla that she found Mr. Singh’s ring.

Which of the following considerations will BEST dissuade Sharda in sharing the information about the ring with Vimla?

Whenever Sharda was absent, Vimla used to help her by taking over her responsibilities.
Mr. Singh will probably terminate Sharda if he gets to know that she has revealed this information.
Sharda is not keeping well, and Mr. Singh warned her that her frequent absences could lead to her termination.
Vimla already knows she has not stolen anything, so telling her will not give her any new information.
Had Vimla done her job properly, she would have found the ring and avoided this incident.
