@Maurya.
Your fault reveals when you arrange as-CEBDA.
But since A B C D E are facing south, their left and right will automatically change will exactly be opposite to that of M N O P Q.

In the last condition, question says Q shifts to the place of B so answer will be B but this answer didn't follow the third condition.

b is facing downwards which means that his "left" is actually your "right"(since we are working from the 'mopen').
Similarly second person "left" to b is second to "right".
Similarly second person "left" to b is second to "right".

Q is second person right of B. But in question second person left of B asked. I think this question is not correct. Or anyone provide proper explanation for this.
