Correct option is C
Given Rows:
- Row-1 (facing South): M, N, O, P
- Row-2 (facing North): E, F, G, H
(When facing South, left-right directions reverse for those persons.)
Step 1: Use statement (i)
E sits third to the right of G
Since Row-2 faces North, right means normal right.
So, if G is at position 1, E will be at position 4.
Thus:
| 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 |
| G | ? | ? | E |
Also, E faces M, so M is in Row-1 position 4.
Step 2: Use statement (iv)
F sits immediate right of G
So, F is at position 2.
Now Row-2:
| 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 |
| G | F | ? | E |
Also, F faces P, so P is in Row-1 position 2.
Step 3: Use statement (ii)
P and N are neighbours
P is at position 2, so N must be at position 1 or 3.
Step 4: Use statement (iii)
O doesn't face G
G is at position 1, so O cannot be at Row-1 position 1.
Available Row-1 seats:
- Position 4 = M
- Position 2 = P
Remaining persons N, O at positions 1 and 3.
Since O cannot be at position 1, so:
- Position 1 = N
- Position 3 = O
Remaining position 4 already M.
Thus Row-1:
| 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 |
| N | P | O | M |
Remaining Row-2 position 3 = H
Final Row-2:
| 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 |
| G | F | H | E |
Step 5: Immediate left of O
Row-1 faces South, so left of O means position 4 (because facing South reverses direction).
Immediate left of O = M
Person opposite M = E
Correct Answer: C) E
