Explanation:

Let's break down the seating:

- Six students: Puneet, Iqbal, Aman, Joya, Pratiksha, Anamika.

- All are facing the centre.

Arrangements:

- Puneet is between Iqbal and Aman.

- Joya is second to the right of Iqbal.

- Pratiksha is third to the left of Aman.

- Anamika is between Joya and Aman.

Let’s arrange:

1. Place Iqbal.

2. Second right of Iqbal is Joya.

3. Anamika is between Joya and Aman, so Aman must be next to Joya (and Anamika between them).

4. Puneet is between Iqbal and Aman.

5. Pratiksha is third to the left of Aman.

After placing everyone, the student sitting between Puneet and Anamika is Joya.

Options:

- Pratiksha

- Joya

- Iqbal

- Aman

Correct answer: Joya (option 2)
