Question

Below are two statements:

I. The central government has initiated the construction of 500 hospital beds with DRDO's assistance in Mumbai following a single-day spike of 5000 COVID-19 cases.

II. Due to the rise in COVID-19 cases, two players from the RCB team have withdrawn from the ongoing IPL cricket tournament.

Choose the option that best describes the relationship between these two statements.

Accepted Answer

**Solution:**

1. Both statements are outcomes triggered by a shared underlying reason — the surge in COVID-19 cases.

2. Statement I reflects the government's response to the rising cases by expanding healthcare infrastructure.

3. Statement II shows the impact of the same cause on sports events, where players opt out due to health concerns.

4. Since neither statement directly causes the other, but both arise from the same root cause, they are effects of a common cause.

**Answer:** (e) Both Statements I and II are effects of some common causes.
