@All.

According to me, the solution is; Track the question backwards;

1) person second of the right of P= B.
2) who is opposite to the person second of the right of P = Q.
3) who will be the second person to the right of the person who is opposite to the person second of the right of P =A.

According to the question and arrangement second right of P is N and the opposite N is E(After Interchange),

So, according to my logic, the Second person from the left would be D(My Answer).

Anyone, please clarify If I am wrong.

In old arrangement D and Q should be opposite to each other so A should come in place of D and D should come in place of B and B should come in place of A.
