Can anyone explain me the reason?

Hi Deepak,
First of all, this question is very far removed from the form of CR questions on the actual GMAT. Second, because the question asks us for what kinds of things the author is committed to believing in, it is really asking us what kind of assumptions the author is making. Accordingly, and despite its wording, this is better viewed as an assumption question.
In order for him to believe that the laziness of Civil Service employees is to blame for governmental inefficiency, he does not HAVE to think that MOST government workers are Civil Service employees. Who knows, maybe each Civil Service employee is responsible for a department that contains hundreds of other kind of government employees. Then, the laziness of Civil Service employees can account for governmental inefficiency even though most government employees are NOT Civil Service employees.
