Solution 1

The person who sits second to the left of Priya is Tejaswini.

Here's how we arrive at this:

  1. First, let's place Priya at the top of the circle for simplicity.
  2. According to the clues, Priya sits to the left of Vineeta. This means Vineeta is on Priya's right.
  3. Reeti is fourth to the right of Priya. Counting Priya as the first, we place Reeti in the fifth position to the right of Priya.
  4. Now, we know that Tejaswini is not sitting between Rani and Shweta. Since we only have three spots left, and two of them are next to each other (which would be between Rani and Shweta), Tejaswini must be in the remaining spot, which is second to the left of Priya.
  5. Rani and Shweta can be placed in the remaining two spots in any order.

So, Tejaswini is the one who sits second to the left of Priya.

Solution 2

Given the conditions, let's arrange the girls around the table:

  1. Start with Priya, since we have information about who is sitting to her left and right.
  2. Vineeta sits to the left of Priya.
  3. Reeti is fourth to the right of Priya. Counting Priya as the first, Reeti would be sitting to the immediate left of Vineeta.
  4. Tejaswini is not sitting between Rani and Shweta. Since only three spots are left, Tejaswini must be sitting to the immediate right of Priya.
  5. Now, only two spots are left for Rani and Shweta. Since Tejaswini can't sit between Rani and Shweta, Rani must be sitting to the immediate right of Tejaswini and Shweta to the immediate left of Reeti.

So, the final arrangement (clockwise) is: Priya, Tejaswini, Rani, Vineeta, Reeti, Shweta.

The person who sits second to the left of Priya is Rani.

Solution 3

The person who sits second to the left of Priya is Tejaswini.

Here's the step by step reasoning:

  1. Priya sits to the left of Vineeta. This means Vineeta is on the right of Priya.
  2. Reeti is fourth to the right of Priya. So, counting from Priya (including Priya), the order is Priya - Vineeta - X - Reeti. Here X is the person sitting between Vineeta and Reeti.
  3. Tejaswini is not sitting between Rani and Shweta. Since we have only one spot left (between Reeti and Priya), Tejaswini must be sitting there.
  4. Therefore, the person who sits second to the left of Priya is Tejaswini.
