If Arun is chosen, who else would have to be definitely in the group? Correct Answer Aditya

Arranging them according to the given information,

Five members have to be chosen, at least three cricketers must be in the group.

If Arun is chosen, Priya is not chosen.

Since, Arun is a cricketer there is a chance of selecting two other cricketers.

Aditya is definitely in the group, since he did not refuse to work with anybody.

Any one between Nitesh and Mohseen is selected, because Nitesh refuses to work with Mohseen.

So,

If Arun is chosen, Aditya would have to be definitely in the group.

Hence, “Aditya” is the correct answer.
