- E. If both the statements I and II are effects of some common cause;
Explanation
Statement II indicates that the cost of production, maintenance, and distribution of LPG has increased by 10%. This increase logically leads to the government raising the rate of LPG by 10% to offset the higher costs, as described in Statement I. Therefore, Statement II is the cause and Statement I is its effect, making Option B correct.Options A, C, D, and E are incorrect because they do not accurately capture the direct causal relationship between the increased costs and the subsequent rate hike.
