Can anyone give a correct explanation?

You are exactly correct @Pawan Joshi.

It's 5T compression by the method of section.

As per my knowledge, It should be 5T compression. I evaluated it by using the method of joints working from a joint with the zero-force member.

Hey guys as truss members do not have any bending moment criteria. So in this question it can't be tensile as it will generate b.m.

Force acting towards the joint in a tress will exert compressive force.
