Explanation:

The statement does not refer to high schools. Moreover it is stated that the released funds are additional funds. It is not known how the earlier funds were released. Hence, I is out of extent.
As the released funds are for schools in educationally backward areas, it is clear that government is under the assumption that midday meal scheme would encourage children to go to school. Hence, II is an assumption.
It is stated that the funds have been released but not that they have been spent. Hence, III is out of context.

Hence, option 4 is the correct answer.
