Given:

Twelve people are sitting in two parallel rows containing six people each. In row-1 P, Q, R, S, T and V are seated and all of them are facing South. In row-2 A, B, C, D, E and F are seated and all of them facing North. 

S sits third to right of Q. Either S or Q sits at an extreme end of the line. The one who faces Q sits second to right of E.

Case 1,

Case 2,

Two people sit between B and F. Neither B nor F sits at an extreme end of the line. 

Case 1,

Case 2,

qImage67f64181ce7ee023472e3731

Now, case 2 gets eliminated as, in this case either B or F is sitting at extreme end.

The immediate neighbour of B faces the person who sits third to left of P means E 

R and T are immediate neighbours of each other.

C sits second to the left of A. T does not face the immediate neighbour of D.

Thus, F faces the one who is second to right of T is correct option.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 3".
