    Solution

    After reading all the sentences, we can say that the passage is about the cases of theft in Vijayanagara. Sentence A comes first as it introduces this issue and provides a platform to carry forward the discussion. Sentence D follows and states that the king was worried about the thefts. Sentence E states that not only the king but also everyone in the court was worried. So, E follows D. Therefore, ADE is in a sequence. Sentence C follows and states that one evening Tenali Rama took a walk back home. The pronoun 'he' refers to Tenali Rama whose mention is there in sentence E. Sentence B talks about the things he saw on his way back home. So, B follows C. Therefore, the correct order is ADECB. Hence, option (c) is the correct answer.
