How come this? If they are in circle also opposite exact is Pankaj.

2 arrangement never possible.

Use any one rotation. Either clockwise or anticlockwise.

In clockwise Deepa - Pankaj-Mukesh-Priti-Lalit-Prakash-Deepa (if start your series with Deepa).

In anti-clockwise Deepa-Prakash-Lalit-Priti-Mukesh-Pankaj-Deepa (if start your series with Deepa).

Both answers are correct.

But this is not 2 arrangement.

Only 1 arrangement with two dimensions (CW and ACW).

Two possible arrangement.

1. PRITI - MUKESH - PANKAJ - DEEPA - PRAKASH - LALIT - PRITI.

2. PRITI - LALIT - PRAKASH - DEEPA - PANKAJ - MUKESH - PRITI.

Here the second one follows the given answer.

Priti opposite is Pankaj. And Priti diagonally opposite means Deepa. I think this is meaning full answer dude.

Please assume that, they have sited in circular arrangement.

I have problem in Third Question, which is your answer is Deepa sit right of pankaj but my answer is Mukesh is right of Pankaj.

So to create conflict in question. So please to add one clue of sitting.

The problem in circular arrangement is that if you rotate the circle then in some cases answer is changed. Please if anyone know about this.
