These statements may be independent causes without having any relationship. Statements: I. Many states reported record agricultural output this year due to favourable monsoon conditions. II. Food grain prices in the domestic market have remained stable for the past several months.
    A Statement I is the cause and Statement II is its effect Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Statement II is the cause and Statement I is its effect Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Both Statements I and II are independent causes Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Both Statements I and II are effects of some common cause Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Statement I talks about record agricultural output caused by favourable monsoons. Higher agricultural output typically increases supply, which can help keep food grain prices stable, as mentioned in Statement II. Thus, Statement I (good monsoon → high output) leads to Statement II (stable prices). Therefore, A is the correct answer.
