It cannot be said with assurance that "Now, more number of foreign tourists will visit the country. "

How can they say more number of tourists will visit their country?

How can statement I be a conclusion "beyond a reasonable doubt"? If it says "Now, there may be more number of foreign tourists" then I'd probably understand. I know it's semantics, but isn't that the point of this exercise?

How can it be said with a guarantee that the number of tourists will increase?

The reality might prove to be different. This conclusion can be challenged.

In my opinion, that in 1st statement didn't mention the country name. The question mentions that gov of country x.

So there might be a chance of the correct option is statement 2.
