Generally, we take the north direction upwards, west on the left side, east on the right and south towards downwards. According to that, the direction of Udai facing will be east.

Can you read the question carefully?
Shadow will be in Vishal's shadow in the left of Udai.
It means Vishal's shadow will be in the right side then Udai facing the north side.

Dear all, shadow is directly related to derection. Sun rise in the east so shadow will be at left, here, shadow of vishal is left of uday it means uday is toward north.

@Chaithra Shetty.

I really agree to you rule is "MR-S" "ML-N".

Morning Right shadow means - south side.
Morning left Shadow means - North side.

So here its North.

Can anyone tell me why they have taken direction as opposite always north is at top & south is at the bottom? but in above given they have taken as the opposite.

If a persons shadow is shadow his right then he is facing south direction MRS.

If a persons shadow is shadow his LEFT then he is facing NORTH direction MLN.

If the man stand at east his shadow will be at west but in case of north there are 2 cases at sunset, sunrise 1. Sunrise shadow at left 2. Sunset at right.

If it is morning rises in east and shadow falls on the west.
If it is sunset sun is in west and shadow falls on the east.

I hope these clears your doubt.

In the morning, sunrises in the east. So the shadow falls towards the west. Now, Vishal's shadow falls to the left of Udai. Hence Udai was facing North.

The given answer is incorrect! because "the raises in the east"(they mentioned its morning) if he faces north the shadow will be on his left.
