- A. Statement I is the cause and statement II is its effect.
- B. Both statements I and II are the effects of independent causes.
- C. Both statements I and II are independent causes.
- D. Statement II is the cause and statement I is its effect.
Explanation
To determine the relationship between the statements, consider the timing and nature of each. Statement I describes past efforts by prominent leaders, Jinnah and Gandhi, to improve relations. Statement II, however, outlines a future plan involving ministers from the Muslim League and Indian National Congress. Since these actions occur at different times and are driven by distinct groups, they do not directly cause one another. Instead, they are reflective of ongoing efforts to improve relations, each initiated by separate motivations or historical contexts. Therefore, both statements are effects of independent causes. Options A, B, and C are incorrect as they misinterpret the temporal and causal relationships between the statements.

About Cause and Effect
Cause and effect questions examine whether one event produces another, whether both arise from a common factor, or whether their connection is only coincidental. They involve identifying preceding and resulting events, separating correlation from causation, and judging whether the stated evidence supports a direct, possible or unlikely relationship.
