So with this, what is the width of the half middle strips given unequal span lengths?

1 column strip =L/4.
There are 2 column strips on one side.
So we take column strips=2 * L/4=L/2.
So, the given is the correct answer.

Half the width of the panel Or 2 times one-fourth the width of the shortest panel. Please explain.

According to IS 456.
31.1.1 For the purpose of this clause, the followingdefinitions shall apply:
a) Column strip - Column strip means a design strip having a width of 0.25 L2, but not greater than 0.25 L1 each side of the columncentre- line, where L1 is the span in the direction moments are being determined, measured centre tocentre of supports and' L2 is th span transverse to measured centre to centre of supports.

@Madhu.
The question is not asking about drop panel.
Here clearly mention column strip Same as in clause 31.1.1 a) of IS 456. So, I think A is the correct option.

As per 1956:2000.
The effective width of a column strip of a flat slab is taken as half the width of the panel.

Answer is correct. Refer 31.2.2, it is half the width of panel (drop panel), not slab width.
