Question

SeveRead the following information and answer the questions that follow: Seven persons P, Q, R, S, T, U and V have joined Indian Army at different ranks i.e. Naik, Subedar, Major, Lieutenant, Captain, Colonel and Brigadier on a different days of the week from Monday to Sunday, in same order and they belong to different cities- Noida, Delhi, Mumbai, Bengaluru, Ahmedabad, Hyderabad and Rohtak. The order of persons, ranks, and cities not necessarily in the same order. R joins at rank of Naik but not on Tuesday. V joins on Monday but not at rank of Major and Brigadier. U joins at rank of Captain on Friday. The one who joins at rank of Naik belongs to Ahmedabad. Q joins at rank of Lieutenant on Wednesday. Two people join on the days between the days on which one joins who belongs to Ahmedabad and the one who belongs to Hyderabad. S, who belongs to Hyderabad does not join at rank of Naik or Major and joins on the next day of the day on which T joins, who joins at rank of Colonel. The one who belongs to Bengaluru joins on the day just before the day on which R joins and three people join between the days on which the one who belongs to Noida and the one who belongs to Rohtak join. The one who belongs to Delhi joins just before the day on which the one who belongs to Noida joins the Indian Army. The one who belongs to Mumbai joins after the day on which the person who belongs to Noida joins.

Which of the following persons, belongs to Delhi?

Accepted Answer

**Solution:**

1. Assign days Monday to Sunday in order.
2. V joins on Monday but is not Major or Brigadier.
3. U joins as Captain on Friday.
4. Q joins as Lieutenant on Wednesday.
5. R joins as Naik but not on Tuesday; Naik belongs to Ahmedabad.
6. S belongs to Hyderabad, joins the day after T, who is Colonel.
7. Bengaluru joins the day before R.
8. Two people join between Ahmedabad and Hyderabad.
9. Three people join between Noida and Rohtak.
10. Delhi joins just before Noida.
11. Mumbai joins after Noida.

Stepwise deduction:
- Since V joins Monday, and R is not Tuesday, R cannot be Tuesday.
- U is Captain on Friday.
- Q is Lieutenant on Wednesday.
- S (Hyderabad) joins the day after T (Colonel), so if T is on day x, S is on day x+1.
- Bengaluru joins the day before R.
- Two people between Ahmedabad (Naik, R) and Hyderabad (S).
- Three people between Noida and Rohtak.
- Delhi joins just before Noida.
- Mumbai joins after Noida.

By placing V on Monday, Q on Wednesday, U on Friday, and R not Tuesday, and considering the conditions, the only consistent arrangement is:

| Day     | Person | Rank     | City      |
|---------|--------|----------|-----------|
| Monday  | V      | Subedar  | Delhi     |
| Tuesday | T      | Colonel  | Noida     |
| Wednesday| Q     | Lieutenant| Mumbai   |
| Thursday| S      | Major    | Hyderabad |
| Friday  | U      | Captain  | Bengaluru |
| Saturday| P      | Brigadier| Rohtak    |
| Sunday  | R      | Naik     | Ahmedabad |

Hence, the person from Delhi is V, but since V is on Monday and the question asks who belongs to Delhi, the correct person is V.

**Correction:** The above table shows V belongs to Delhi, but options mark T as correct. Let's verify carefully.

- V joins Monday, not Major or Brigadier.
- R is Naik (Ahmedabad), not Tuesday.
- Bengaluru joins day before R.
- Two people between Ahmedabad (R) and Hyderabad (S).
- S joins day after T (Colonel).
- Delhi joins just before Noida.
- Three people between Noida and Rohtak.
- Mumbai joins after Noida.

Try placing R on Sunday (Naik, Ahmedabad).
- Bengaluru joins day before R → Saturday is Bengaluru.
- S (Hyderabad) joins day after T (Colonel).
- Two people between Ahmedabad (Sunday) and Hyderabad (S).
- So Hyderabad must be Thursday (S), T is Wednesday.
- Q is Lieutenant on Wednesday, so T cannot be Wednesday.
- So T must be Tuesday, S Wednesday.
- Delhi joins just before Noida.
- Three people between Noida and Rohtak.

Assign:
- Monday: V (not Major or Brigadier)
- Tuesday: T (Colonel)
- Wednesday: S (Hyderabad)
- Thursday: Q (Lieutenant)
- Friday: U (Captain)
- Saturday: P
- Sunday: R (Naik, Ahmedabad)

Delhi just before Noida, so Delhi on Monday, Noida on Tuesday.
- V is Monday, so V is Delhi.
- T is Tuesday, so T is Noida.

Three people between Noida (Tuesday) and Rohtak.
- So Rohtak is Saturday (P).

Mumbai joins after Noida (Tuesday), so Mumbai is Thursday (Q).

Bengaluru joins day before R (Sunday), so Bengaluru is Saturday (P).

Ranks:
- V: Monday, Delhi, Subedar (since not Major or Brigadier)
- T: Tuesday, Noida, Colonel
- S: Wednesday, Hyderabad, Major
- Q: Thursday, Mumbai, Lieutenant
- U: Friday, Captain, Bengaluru
- P: Saturday, Brigadier, Rohtak
- R: Sunday, Naik, Ahmedabad

Therefore, the person from Delhi is V.

**Answer:** (e) V
