Direction: Study the following information carefully and answer the questions given below:
Eight persons A, B, C, D, E, F, G, and H are sitting around a square table in such a way that four of them sit at four corners facing toward the center, and the other four sit at the middle of the sides facing outside. G does not sit at the corner. D sits second to the left of A who sits third left of G. C sits third to the left of B who is not a neighbour of G. Only two persons sit between F and H who sits opposite to E.

Explanation:
- Eight people are seated around a square table; those at corners face the center, while those at sides face outward.
- G does not sit at a corner—implying G is on one of the middle sides.
- A is seated third to the left of G.
- D is seated second to the left of A.
- B, sitting third to the left of C, cannot be G's neighbor—this suggests a specific placement for B and nearby seats.
- F and H have only two persons between them, and H sits opposite E.
Now, let's identify the odd one out by recognizing who doesn’t fit a certain pattern.
- A, C, D, F all either have specific rules about their placement or are positioned at corners.
- E is positioned directly opposite of H, without similar conditions that apply to others (like G and B).
- This places E in a unique positional condition compared to A, C, D, and F, linking them into patterns more than E.
Thus, E is the odd one out. Option:3, E is correct.
