The cause for both the actions is same that is increase in the price escalation. So I think E is a better option.

I am having problem in recognize option c and d both are independent causes and effect of independent causes how to distinguish between them. Any suggestions?

For the first statement we cannot state that the cause was the escalation in price hike, it could be low tuition fees from the students as well. Whereas the second statement states the escalation of price rates.
Clearly, we can see that both statements show the effect from a cause.
Therefore, I think the correct option should be - D.

What it means is in order to cope up the state of the art technology which is getting more advance day by day the colleges have no choice but to increase their fees but their tax burdens can be decreased if government college students can pay more for the state of the art infrastructures with the best possible faculty of the country.
And in turn these people choose to go for multinational companies in order to reach the pinnacle of what they are doing. I think its in governments best interest to raise money for which they could relax taxation on private colleges. How much time and money do you really think is required to built such institutions with such reputation?
Some innovative loan schemes where if a person gets a good job and career his some earned of money can be paid back to the government itself at very cheap loans. I think this will create more revenue for the government colleges.
Therefore, I really think that one of the causes for private colleges increasing the fees every year.

I can't recognize option c ever. In my view again these are effects. Can anybody explain how these are causes and how the answer is c?

Independent causes never take place it's always the independent effects. So, the question like this can never have an answer of independent causes.
