Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Step-by-step check of criteria:
Coordinator: Dr. Ashwani Dolke is Joint Director — this satisfies the requirement that the coordinator be Deputy Director or Joint Director.
Area: The programme is in Research Methodology, which is NOT one of the allowed areas (HRD, Advertising, Computers, Statistics). So the area criterion fails.
Duration: 5 days ≤ 7 days — criterion satisfied.
Fee: Rs.7,000 ≥ Rs.5,000 — criterion satisfied.
Participants: 60 ≥ 50 — criterion satisfied.
Conclusion: Only the area criterion fails. The rules include a specific exception stating that if the programme is in an area other than the listed areas but the coordinator is a Joint Director, the programme should be organized in Hotel Sideways.
Final answer: Organize the programme in Hotel Sideways.
