Verbal Reasoning - Seating Arrangement - Discussion

If we consider the positions one thing is clear.

From the observer's point of view, Deepa is on Prakash's left and Lalit to his right but if we consider from the seated person's point of view 2 case scenarios are possible.

Deepa on right and Lalit on left (when all are facing towards the circle's centre).

Deepa on left and Lalit on right. (When all face away from the centre, a 180° turn).

But the question mandates that they are facing the centre. It is s therefore, safe to assume that Deepa is to the right and Lalit to the left of Prakash.

The answer is Lalit, because everyone is facing to the centre and thus Lalit is at Prakash's right. The main sentence here is facing towards the centre, which has been forgotten as the questions move ahead.

Prakash ->Deepa->Pankaj->Mukesh->Priti->Lalit.

According to me, Deepa is the correct answer.

Prakash-> Deepa->Pankaj-> Mukesh->Priti->Lalit->Prakash.

According to me, this sequence satisfies all the given statement, so answer might be Deepa.

2 ways of arrangements are possible so this is not a clear question.

In such cases we have to use clockwise direction.

There are two possibilities of answer.

According to me, this sequence satisfies all the given statement, so the answer might be Deepa. I was thinking the same because the right side is clockwise then you choose anti-clockwise.

There must one more condition stating the position of Deepa. Whether left or right to Prakash.

According to me, the answer must be Deepa. When we started on the anticlockwise direction.
