Any conclusion having an advise or a result related to the given statement is always true.

Here conclusion 1 is related to statement given while conclusion 2 is not.

So, only 1 follows.

How A is correct?

Answer: Since the statement says that "The old older changed yielding place to new"

1. Conclusion I follows: Since the statement says that old order has given its place to new which means when that the place has undergone changes due to faults and redundancy in the old order. This concludes that as many times these faults or whatsoever the reason may be come change will happen.

2. Conclusion II doesn't follow: No where it was mention that the old order was changed due to redundancy. It might have been due to various other factors.

In statement & conclusion.

The conclusion can't be made on common sense or general knowledge and statement have to be based on the statement provided.

So, how A is correct? Please tell me.
