• A. Harshal and Anil
• B. Sunil and Anil
• C. Anil and Kishore
• D. Ujwal and Anil

Answer 1

The correct option is A Harshal and Anil

(i) Sunil and Omsai are at the two ends and Harshal is between Shubham and Sunil.

So, Sunil $\to$ Harshal $\to$ Shubham is arrangement of first $3$ boys.

(ii) Anil is between Shubham and Ujwal. Kishore is between Ujwal and Omsai.

So, Sunil $\to$ Harshal $\to$ Shubham $\to$ Anil $\to$ Ujwal $\to$ Kishore $\to$ Omsai is the sitting arrangement of $7$ boys.

Clearly, Shubham is between Harshal and Anil.
