In the question below, two statements (I) and (II) are
given. These statements may be either independent causes or may be effects of independent causes or a common cause. One of these statements may be the effect of the other statement. Read both the statements and decide which of the following answer choices correctly depicts the relationship between these two statements. I.

Over the last year, there has been a ten percent increase in the number of colleges providing postgraduate medical education.Solution
Statement I tells us how many engineering colleges have shut down. Reasons such as less demand for engineering seats, or increased scrutiny by the AICTE could be behind it. Statement II tells us how there has been an increase in the number of colleges offering postgraduate medical education. Reasons such as an increase in demand for medical seats at the postgraduate level could be behind it. Thus, both the statements are effects of independent causes, which makes (d) the right answer.
