Show the answer and explanation
Correct answer: D
Explanation
Row facing north: left is west, right is east. Row facing south: left is east, right is west. Each person faces the one in the same position of the other row.
Row 1 (west to east): Chetan, Brinda, Anil, since Anil is on Brinda's right, the east side.
Row 2 faces south, so its right end is the WEST end: Diya is at the west end, Ehsaan in the middle, Falguni at the east end.
Chetan (west end of Row 1) faces Diya (west end of Row 2).
Worth noting
Falguni is the answer if you put Row 2's right end on the east, as for Row 1. The two rows have opposite right ends.
