Question
Which couple had been to Chandigarh?
Options:
A .  Vijay and Geeta
B .  Vijay and Ankita
C .  Sunil and Ankita
D .  Rahul  and Geeta
E .  Sunil and Vijeta
Answer: Option B
:
B
Create a table with the names of the husbands in the rows and the wives, surnames, cars and places visited in the columns. If any data is directly given for a husband, fill it in the table and fill the alternatives in that column for the other persons. For data where the husband is not explicitly mentioned, note them down for further reference.
Thus, we have Priyanka ≠ Kapoor and Priyanka = Shimla
Mr. and Mrs. Bhatia ≠ Alto
Santro = Chandigarh
Sunil ≠ Ankita Singh
Now, consider this table and the clues given above together.
Since Priyanka went to Shimla, Ajay and Geeta had to mandatorily go to Agra.
Sunil rode the Swift and the person riding Santro went to Chandigarh. Therefore, Sunil could not have gone to
Chandigarh and had to go to Shimla. This also means that Vijay and his wife went to Chandigarh.
Thus, the column for places is completed.
Since Sunil went to Shimla, Priyanka is Sunil's wife and so Ankita is Vijay's wife. Therefore, Rahul's wife can only be Vijeta. Thus, the column for females is also filled.
Since Priyanka is not Kapoor, her surname is Bhatia. Also, Vijay is married to Ankita Singh and so their surname is Singh. Therefore, Ajay's surname can only be Kapoor. This fills the column for surnames.
Since Vijay went to Chandigarh, he rode a Santro. Therefore, from the table, Rahul and Ajay can only ride Alto and Ritz respectively. Thus, the entire table can be filled as shown below:
Thus, Vijay and Ankita had been to Chandigarh.
Hence, option B.
