Which is true about a method-local inner class?
Answer: Option
Explanation:
Option B is correct because a method-local inner class can be abstract, although it means a subclass of the inner class must be created if the abstract class is to be used (so an abstract method-local inner class is probably not useful).
Option A is incorrect because a method-local inner class does not have to be declared final (although it is legal to do so).
C and D are incorrect because a method-local inner class cannot be made public (remember-you cannot mark any local variables as public), or static.

Why inner class can't be made public ?

Because it is only visible to the enclosing class so no use making it public.

Why method is not static?

Initially,
Static variables.
Static method.
Static block.
Are loaded before object creation and they are not part of the object.
So, for inner method we cannot declare static because static method should be loaded before object creation, by using object reference we are calling the method so, we cannot use inner method as static.

Don't you think this question contradicts the explanation given here about inner class variables made public?

It can be marked as static but it can only be accessed by the outer class.
