@All.
Here, the Venn diagram clearly says that the window has no connection with the wall then how can option E be correct?
I think Option B is the correct answer.

According to me, Option E is correct. Because we can not draw a possible diagram for this question, except we can draw a basic diagram.
When we try to draw the possible diagram here we can not put or accommodate Wall with Window or Door because in a statement it is clearly given that "No Wall is a Door" i.e. we can not put wall with door and window.
So, we have to solve the question only based on the Basic Diagram. In a basic diagram, both options will come wrong. Therefore according to my result, Option E is correct.
