@ALL.
By solving; The distance is;
Nilesh - Ankur = 25 km.
Ankur - Kumar = 40.
Kumar - Dev =60.
Dev - Kumar = 60 ( nilesh returning and then going to pintu from kumar place)
Kumar - Pintu = 30.
Total = 215 km.

First, he starts from Nilesh and covered 25 m and he met Ankur and after that, he covered 40 m, and then he met Kumar.
So, the total distance covered by now is (25+40=65), and now he met Dev and covered 60m, so the total distance by now is 65 + 60 = 125m, now in the last he has to met Pintu so he has to go to Kumar and cover 60m again, so now the total distance is 125 + 60 = 185m, now he met Pintu and covered 30m.
Then the final distance he covered is 185 + 30 = 215m.
So, the total distance covered by now is (25+40=65), and now he met Dev and covered 60m, so the total distance by now is 65 + 60 = 125m, now in the last he has to met Pintu so he has to go to Kumar and cover 60m again, so now the total distance is 125 + 60 = 185m, now he met Pintu and covered 30m.
Then the final distance he covered is 185 + 30 = 215m.

The boy is started from Nilesh, as Nilesh is 25m left to Kumar then 40-25 is 15 then why 25 is taken? Please tell me.

@All.
Read the question he walked through the straight line so the people who are standing south and east should become as a straight line so to become straight Line they has to move 30 degrees soo dev (60 + 30 = 90], Pintu has to move 30 degrees (30 + 30) so.
Nilesh (25) + Ankur (10) + Dev (90) + Pinku (60) = 215km.
Hope this helps.

But how you can choose the distance of 25, 40, 60, 90 by yourself?

From N he travels at distance of 25 to meet A, then he travels a distance of 40 to meet K, then he meets D (to his right) at a distance of 60, then goes back to meet P at distance of 90.
Totally, 25+40+60+90 = 215.
Totally, 25+40+60+90 = 215.

The answer is 215. Because he has travelled 25+40+60+60 (back from dev to Kumar) +30 (because the total distance between Pintu and dev was 90 of which 60 has been covered by him travelling from dev to Kumar and now the left distance is of 30) =215.
