    The explanation for the given answer is that both statements I and II are related to the issue of load shedding. Statement I states that rural and semi-urban areas have been suffering from load shedding for some time, indicating that there is already a power crisis in these areas. Statement II suggests that if the government is unable to overcome the power crisis, load shedding will be extended to urban areas as well. This implies that there is a common cause, which is the power crisis, that is affecting both rural/semi-urban areas and potentially urban areas as well. Therefore, both statements I and II are effects of the common cause of the power crisis.

    A. Both the statements I and II are independent causes
    Explanation
    The reduction in the number of people affected by water-borne diseases in City F during the rainy season could be due to various factors such as improved sanitation, awareness campaigns, or personal hygiene practices.

Therefore, both statements I and II are independent causes and are not directly related to each other.

    Correct Answer
    A. Both the statements I and II are independent causes
    Explanation
    The explanation for the answer "Both the statements I and II are independent causes" is that statement I suggests that there has been a growth in the incidents of atrocities against women in the city during the last year. This implies that there is an increase in the number of crimes being committed. On the other hand, statement II states that the police authority has been unable to nab the culprits who are committing crime against women. This suggests that the police's inability to catch the culprits is a separate issue and not directly related to the increase in the number of crimes. Therefore, both statements are independent causes.
