Can't it be option E?
Where for a common cause (financial problem) there are two different effect?
One is increasing the fees another one is remaining as it was.

In my opinion, as I observe in given explanation which is - "The increase in the fees of the private colleges and there being no increase in the same in Government colleges seem to be policy matters undertaken by the individual decisive boards at the two levels".
According to them, it is seeming a policy matter. By the individual board of the private medical college, the fee has been increased. It all depends on board whether they want to increase or not despite of expenses. This is a cause. And later There could be some effects from this cause: such as - protest of students etc.
And at another independent level, the board of the government medical colleges have not increased the fees despite of price escalation. After all, they are funded by the government.

Option E should be correct. These are "effects "of independent causes.

These seem to be effects of independent causes. Am I right?

I feel they are effects of independent causes.
Price escalation is when an item has a different price in a different market or location. There are many causes of this but largely it comes down to supply chain variations such as differing shipping costs, paid tariffs or a wide range of distribution channels.
