Accepted Answer

**Solution:**

We are given 8 persons (A, B, C, D, M, N, O, P) attending a function in 8 different months (January, March, April, May, July, August, November, December).

**Step 1: Analyze Statement I**
- One person attends between M and N.
- P attends two persons after O but not after A.
- One person attends between A and C.
- N and P do not attend in adjacent months.

This gives relative positions but not exact months.

**Step 2: Analyze Statement II**
- O and N do not attend in adjacent months.
- Two persons attend between N and D.
- D does not attend just before O.
- C does not attend in the month with minimum days (February is not given, so January has 31 days, March 31, April 30, May 31, July 31, August 31, November 30, December 31).
- Among given months, April and November have 30 days; minimum is 30 days.
- So C cannot be in April or November.

**Step 3: Analyze Statement III**
- A is neither first nor last.
- D and M are not adjacent.
- A does not attend just before M.
- B neither attends just after N nor just before O.

**Step 4: Combine all statements**
- Using all clues, the arrangement can be deduced as:

| Month    | Person |
|----------|---------|
| January  | O       |
| March    | D       |
| April    | P       |
| May      | A       |
| July     | N       |
| August   | C       |
| November | M       |
| December | B       |

**Step 5: Answer the question**
- The person attending in May is **A**.

**Answer:** (e) If data in all statements i.e., I, II and III together is sufficient
