Answer the question on the basis of following information.

Shown below is a layout of major streets in a city.

Two days (Thursday and Friday) are left for campaigning before a major election, and the city administration has received requests from five political parties for taking out their processions along the following routes.

Congress: A-C-D-E

BJP: A-B-D-E

SP: A-B-C-E

BSP: B-C-E

CPM: A-C-D

 

Street B-D cannot be used for a political procession on Thursday due to a religious procession. The district administration has a policy of not allowing more than one procession to pass along the same street on the same day. However, the administration must allow all parties to take out their procession during these two days.

 

Congress procession can be allowed

  1. only on Thursday.
  2. only on Friday.
  3. on either day.
  4. only if the religious procession is cancelled.

Ans Should be A) ..

From the given clue "Street B-D cannot be used for a political procession on Thursday due to a religious procession."

1) we get idea that BJP which have route A--B--D--E taking out their procession only on friday . 

2) now we can compare route of congress which is A--C--D--E , here D--E route is same as BJP ROUTE A--B--D--E . so they will not at same day ( according to The district administration has a policy of not allowing more than one procession to pass along the same street on the same day)

So its clear that congress takeing out their procession on thursday .
