Which of the following is not true ?
Answer: D
The statement that is not true is Congress and BSP can take out their processions on the same day.
List the streets each route uses. Congress: A-C, C-D, D-E. BJP: A-B, B-D, D-E. SP: A-B, B-C, C-E. BSP: B-C, C-E. CPM: A-C, C-D.
BJP uses B-D, closed on Thursday, so BJP must go on Friday. SP shares A-B with BJP, so SP goes on Thursday. BSP shares B-C and C-E with SP, so BSP goes on Friday. Congress shares D-E with BJP, so Congress goes on Thursday, and CPM, sharing A-C and C-D with Congress, goes on Friday.
Thursday: Congress and SP. Friday: BJP, BSP and CPM. No street is used twice on either day.
Congress is forced onto Thursday and BSP onto Friday, so they cannot march on the same day.
The other three statements are true: Congress and SP both march on Thursday; CPM shares streets with Congress and so cannot be on Thursday; and BJP, which needs street B-D, can only march on Friday.
