Statements:
I) India's economy sees record growth during the deadly Covid second wave.
II) Manufacturing and Health sectors drove growth during the second lockdown.
This question requires analyzing the cause-and-effect relationship between two statements concerning India's economy during the Covid second wave.
Statement I states: "India's economy sees record growth during the deadly Covid second wave." This statement describes an outcome or a result – overall economic growth.
Statement II states: "Manufacturing and Health sectors drove growth during the second lockdown." This statement identifies the specific sectors and their performance that led to economic activity. These are the contributing factors.
