Sentence 1- Sentence Q clearly introduces the subject of the paragraph that is the policy of Privatisation in Air India. All the other sentences explain the same subject but not introduce it as clearly as Q.

Sentence 2- Sentence P begins with ‘this’ which means it is a continuation of the previous sentence. This here refers to the policy of privatisation in Air India. So sentence P is next in sequence.

Sentence 3- Sentence R is next in sequence as it talks about the fact that the parliamentary committee is yet to react on the policy that was explained in the previous lines.

Sentence 4- Sentence S concludes the paragraph by providing another side of the discussion that there could not be a more opportune time to push ahead with disinvestment; this, ironically, happened after the airlines had improved its operational performance.
