Number the five seats from left to right because everyone faces North. Place Kabir at seat 1 from the extreme-left clue. Om is second to the right of Kabir, so Om must occupy seat 3. Mohan is immediately left of Om, fixing Mohan at seat 2. Place Naina at extreme-right seat 5; consequently Leela, immediately left of Naina, occupies seat 4. The completed arrangement is Seat 1: Kabir | Seat 2: Mohan | Seat 3: Om | Seat 4: Leela | Seat 5: Naina. The question asks: Who sits at the extreme right? Kabir is incorrect because Kabir occupies seat 1, which does not satisfy the requested position. Mohan is incorrect because Mohan occupies seat 2, which does not satisfy the requested position.

Common questions and clear answers for this topic.
Sitting Arrangement questions provide positional clues about people seated in a row, circle or other layout. The solver constructs one arrangement satisfying every clue and answers questions about positions, neighbours and gaps.
Draw numbered seats, mark fixed ends and exact positions first, then join immediate-neighbour clues into blocks. Place remaining people through elimination and verify every original statement on the completed row.
For people facing North, their left and right match the reader's view; for people facing South, they reverse. In a circle, inward and outward facing conventions must be fixed before applying any left-right clue.
