Answer should be D. Government has decided to hold single entrance there are many reason (reduce the no of test, student invest less money on test).
State govt has debarred other student may be no of students in state is more or reduce the tension of govt from student poltics. Etc.

@Dhruvan.
Central has supreme power than state. They decided to conduct a common entrance test because some states are not allowing other state students. As for my knowledge, option B is correct.

The answer should be option 'B' as some states did not allow students of other states that is why the government started a common medical test.

Yes, I also agree with option B because from 2 sentences the effect for 1 sentence has taken place.
