Solution

The correct option is B South
Remember this logic:
"You start from a point in any direction, you now turn right after covering certain distance. You now turn left after covering some distance. You will find that you are now moving in the same direction in which you started".
Now since the man is moving North, this means man has started his journey Northwards.
