    Solution

    Only 5 persons sit between A and I when counted from the right of A. Y sits second to the left of I. Only four persons sit between Y and V. Here we get two possibilities Case (1) and Case (2). Q is an immediate neighbor of V. P sits fifth to the right of Q. T sits third to the left of Y. E sits second to the left of C. Here Case 1 gets eliminated. Number of letters between E and I in the alphabetical series is same as the number of persons sitting between A and G.
