Explanation:

Let’s break it down:

- We have two rows, four people in each. Row I (L, O, V, E) faces south, Row II (P, I, C, T) faces north.

- V sits at the extreme left in Row I and is opposite T. So Row I, left to right: V _ _ _ ; Row II, left to right: _ _ _ T.

- C sits next to the person at the extreme left in Row II and is exactly opposite O. So, C must be in the second position from the left in Row II and O is opposite that.

- E is V’s immediate neighbor and is exactly opposite P. So, E is next to V in Row I, and E’s opposite is P.

Let’s fix the arrangement:

1. Row I: V E O L (the only way E can be beside V, and O is opposite C who is second in Row II).

2. So, Row II: I C P T (since V is opposite T, E is opposite P, O is opposite C).

3. Therefore, I sits at the extreme left end of the north-facing row.

Option 3: I

That’s how the logic checks out.
