Question
In the question below, a statement is given depicting an issue or a problem. You have to assume everything in the statement to be true even if it is at variance from commonly known facts. On the basis of the information given in the statement, decide which of the suggested courses of action logically follow(s). Statement: Traditionally, urban planning treats transportation, water management, and energy distribution as independent sectors, with separate budgets and engineering teams. However, modern urbanization has created a "system-of-systems" where a failure in the power grid can instantly disable water pumps and traffic signaling, leading to a total urban shutdown. The interlinkages between these infrastructures mean that a small localized glitch can cascade into a city-wide crisis. Courses of Action:

Statement: Traditionally, urban planning treats transportation, water management, and energy distribution as independent sectors, with separate budgets and engineering teams. However, modern urbanization has created a "system-of-systems" where a failure in the power grid can instantly disable water pumps and traffic signaling, leading to a total urban shutdown. The interlinkages between these infrastructures mean that a small localized glitch can cascade into a city-wide crisis. Courses of Action:
I. Urban planners should adopt an integrated cross-sectoral framework to identify and mitigate the risks of cascading infrastructure failures.
II. Budgetary allocations should be strictly separated for each sector to ensure that specialized engineering teams can focus exclusively on their own infrastructure.
