because students are increasing randomly so increase in seat would help 

The statement highlights an unprecedented increase in the number of successful candidates in the School Leaving Certificate Examination (which typically means more students qualifying for higher education). This naturally leads to a higher demand for intermediate course seats in colleges.

Statement I: "The government should make arrangements to increase the number of seats of intermediate courses in existing colleges."

This follows because increasing seats in existing colleges is a practical short-term solution to accommodate more students.

Statement II: "The government should take active steps to open new colleges to accommodate all these successful candidates."

This also follows because opening new colleges is a long-term measure to handle the growing number of students.

Since both actions logically follow from the given statement, the correct answer is:

Both of them follow. ✅

If neither action was logical, this would be correct. However, since the increase in successful candidates directly impacts the demand for higher education, both solutions are necessary and relevant.

 Only I follows – Incorrect

While increasing seats in existing colleges is a valid solution, it may not be enough if the number of students continues to grow significantly. A long-term approach (such as opening new colleges) is also needed.

Only II follows – Incorrect

While opening new colleges is a good step, it is a long-term solution and may take time. In the short run, increasing seats in existing colleges is also necessary. Therefore, only Statement II alone is not sufficient.
