In above comments arrangement is.
JHLMPTRS.
I think, it is correct arrangement but this is according to options but in exam we can not predict according to option. So I think not sufficient data.

Guys there wont be exact seating with the given information but we can fix the positions of few members i.e H,L,M,P basing on this we have to check the given options, whether they are satisfying the condition or not. Basing on that,
From Option 1: Robert is not at the left end.
Explanation: Though we can place him at left end but we have to see whether there are alternatives or not by satisfying the condition. In this the arrangement would be J H L M P R T S.
From Option 2: R is between S and T.
Explanation: In this we can check the probability by satisfying the condition. The arrangement would be J H L M P S R T.
From Option 3: T is B/W P and J.
Explanation: with this the arrangement has to be S H L M P T J R which is not possible because there should be at least one to the right of J. So this statement is wrong. Hence the answer is C.
With the option 4: It is satisfying J H L M P R T S.
Hope this explanation clears your doubts.

The correct answer is SHLMPRJT.
Clearly from the conclusion. Read the conclusion and judge. There can be only 3 person right to paul. So simon can't be after taud.
