Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Concept: In a family-tree / blood-relation puzzle, a person's daughter-in-law is simply the wife of that person's son. So the task reduces to two steps: (1) confirm which family member is the person's son, and (2) find that son's spouse.
Paksh is married to Tanmay, so they form the first-generation couple.
Tanmay is stated to be the father of Rajan, and the passage explicitly rules out Rajan being a daughter of Paksh - so Rajan is the son of Paksh and Tanmay.
Pratishtha is married to Rajan, making her Rajan's wife.
Since Rajan is Paksh's son and Pratishtha is his wife, Pratishtha is Paksh's daughter-in-law.
Cross-check: The family tree confirms this - Paksh and Tanmay (generation 1) are the parents of Rajan (generation 2), who is married to Pratishtha; Awantika is Pratishtha's mother, one generation above her; and Noor, the child of Rajan and Pratishtha, forms generation 3. That accounts for exactly 3 generations and 6 members, matching the stem, with Pratishtha confirmed as Rajan's wife.
Hence, Pratishtha is the daughter-in-law of Paksh.
