Statement — “While the entire opposition walked out of the Lok Sabha today, the government’s allies (TDP, DMK, Samata Party) supported the demand to roll back fertilizer prices.” — News report. Conclusions: I. The government’s decision is likely to put farmers into greater difficulty. II. The government is under intense pressure from both allies and opposition.

Introduction / Context:The news highlights political opposition across party lines (opposition’s walkout and allies’ support for rollback). Price rollbacks are typically demanded when a decision is seen as onerous to beneficiaries—in this context, farmers.

Given Data / Assumptions:

• Opposition protests; allies back rollback demand.
• Policy at issue: fertilizer price increase or removal of subsidy.

Concept / Approach:Conclusion I: Allies demanding rollback imply the original decision adversely affects farmers (they are the intended beneficiaries), hence I follows. Conclusion II: Concurrent pressure from both opposition and allies constitutes “intense pressure”; the government faces bipartisan pushback, so II follows.

Step-by-Step Solution:1) Interpret rollback demand → perception of harm to farmers.2) Aggregate political signals → pressure from both camps.

Why Other Options Are Wrong:Only I/Only II/Either: understate the full implications. Neither: contradicts the political reality depicted.

Common Pitfalls:Assuming protests are symbolic only; here, both allies and opposition align, signaling real pressure.

Final Answer:Both I and II follow.
