Show the answer and explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
Facing the centre, a person's left neighbour is the next seat clockwise (seen from above) and the right neighbour is the next seat anticlockwise.
Clockwise from Arun: Arun, _, Farzana (second to his left), Dhruv (opposite), _, _.
Bhavya must be next to Dhruv; the seat before Dhruv is Farzana's, so Bhavya is the seat after him. Elango, on Arun's right, is the last seat. Chaitra takes the second seat.
Clockwise from Arun: Arun, Chaitra, Farzana, Dhruv, Bhavya, Elango.
Chaitra is second in the clockwise list; three seats on is Bhavya.
Worth noting
Dhruv is opposite Arun, not Chaitra.
