Deepa is sitting opposite to Priti.
Let's place the 6 friends in a circle facing the center step-by-step:
1. Fix the opposite pair: Place Prakash at the top position. Since Mukesh is directly opposite to him, Mukesh goes to the bottom position.
2. Arrange Deepa and Pankaj: We know Deepa is between Prakash and Pankaj.
* Let's place Deepa to the immediate right of Prakash.
* This means Pankaj must be placed next to Deepa.
3. Arrange Priti and Lalit: We know Priti is between Mukesh and Lalit.
* Since Mukesh is at the bottom, and the right side is already occupied, Priti must be placed to the immediate left of Mukesh.
* This leaves the last remaining spot (to the left of Prakash) for Lalit.
## Final Seating Positions (Moving Clockwise):
* Top: Prakash
* Top-Right: Deepa
* Bottom-Right: Pankaj
* Bottom: Mukesh
* Bottom-Left: Priti
* Top-Left: Lalit
