Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Final answer: Srinivas and Murali are opposite each other.
Reasoning:
Place Murali at the north seat.
Rahul sits to the left of Murali, so Rahul sits at the west seat (adjacent to Murali).
Place Arul at the east seat. Srinivas sits to the right of Arul, so Srinivas sits at the south seat (adjacent to Arul).
Now check opposites: north (Murali) is opposite south (Srinivas); west (Rahul) is opposite east (Arul).
Therefore, the pair seated opposite each other is Srinivas and Murali.
