Solution

The correct option is B Left
Answer is B.

When the magnet is stationary, there is no deflection in the galvanometer. The pointer reads zero. This means no current is flowing through the circuit of the coil.
If the south pole of the magnet is brought towards the solenoid, the galvanometer shows deflection. Current flows in the coil of the solenoid in the clockwise direction and the galvanometer shows deflection towards the left.
