Twenty-one employees hold different designations in a bank: CEO, MD, DGM, AGM, Manager, and Clerk. The seniority order is CEO (highest), followed by MD, DGM, AGM, Manager, and Clerk (lowest). The number of employees at each designation is exactly one more than the number at the immediately senior designation. For example, if there are three AGMs, then there are four Managers, and so on.

Given:
- P, T, and W share the same designation.
- S is senior to W.
- X is senior to U, and U is not an AGM.
- R and V share the same designation.
- Neither B nor H is a Manager, but both share the same designation.
- D, E, and H share the same designation, which is junior to Q and T.
- Q is junior to U.
- The same number of designations are senior to Q and T.
- X is junior to N but senior to R.
- A, L, and M share the same designation.
- W is not a Manager.
- R is neither Manager nor Clerk.
- Z and Y are senior to G and O.

Employees are transferred to three departments: HR, Marketing, and Legal, based on the following rules:

I. No transfers for the top two designations; these become leaders of HR, Marketing, and Legal respectively in alphabetical order.
II. Employees whose names start with a consonant before 'M' in the alphabet transfer to HR.
III. Employees whose names start with a consonant after 'M' transfer to Marketing.
IV. The rest transfer to Legal.

Which of the following statements is NOT true?

I. The number of employees transferred to Marketing is greater than those transferred to Legal.
II. T is junior to O.
III. Both P and T are senior to Z.

Accepted Answer

**Solution:**

1. **Determine the number of persons at each designation:**
   - Let the number of CEOs be 1 (given only N).
   - Then MD has 2 persons (S, X).
   - DGM has 3 persons (U, R, V).
   - AGM has 4 persons (P, T, Q, W).
   - Manager has 5 persons (A, L, M, Z, Y).
   - Clerk has 6 persons (B, D, G, H, E, O).

2. **Check the department allocation:**
   - Top two posts (CEO and MD) are not transferred and become leaders of HR, Marketing, and Legal respectively in alphabetical order:
     - CEO (N) leads HR
     - MD (S) leads Marketing
     - DGM (X) leads Legal

3. **Assign departments based on name initials:**
   - Names starting with consonants before 'M' go to HR:
     - L, B, D, G, H
   - Names starting with consonants after 'M' go to Marketing:
     - R, V, P, Q, T, W, Y, Z
   - The rest go to Legal:
     - U, A, E, O, M

4. **Evaluate the statements:**
   - Statement I: Marketing has 8 persons, Legal has 5 persons. So, Marketing > Legal is true.
   - Statement II: T is AGM and O is Clerk. Since AGM is senior to Clerk, T is senior to O. So, T junior to O is false.
   - Statement III: P and T are AGM; Z is Manager. AGM is senior to Manager, so P and T are senior to Z. This is true.

5. **Conclusion:**
   - Statement II is false.
   - Statement I and III are true.

**Answer:** Both I and II (Option a) is NOT true because Statement II is false and Statement I is true. However, since the question asks which statement is NOT true, and only Statement II is false, the correct choice is (a) Both I and II, as per the original key, indicating a possible misinterpretation in the original. But logically, only Statement II is false.

**Note:** The original answer key marks option (b) Only II as correct, which aligns with the logical conclusion that only Statement II is false.

Hence, the correct answer is **Only II**.
