@geetha, arvind and aaryan: No the answer is correct. Just imagine yourself facing south () like C, E, D, B, A clearly in this position B is just next to the left of D which is what have been said. Imagine yourself in the situation and your doubt will be clear.

Rahul and Geetha are right. Even I got confused with the question and answer.
Arvind said:   1 decade ago
@Geetha you are right.
Geetha said:   1 decade ago
In the second statement it was given that B is just next to the left of D but in the solution it was not like that.so question may be wrong.

In solution b is just next to the left of the Mr. Rahul because all men are facing to south.

If C is diagonal opposite to N

So it could be

D B A C E

P Q N M O

satisfying all the arrangement's but not the question.

Just n is diagnol to c is not enough. It would be necessary to know at which postion it is diagnol to n.
