Common Explanation :
Reference :
In a family of some persons Bhanu says that Rani is the daughter of my sister Banti, who is the only daughter of Tamanna.
Rahul is the child of Tamanna and Rohan, who is the grandmother of Harish.
Rahul is unmarried.
Inference :
From the above hints, following two cases arise.
Case 1: When Harish is the child of Banti
|
Case 2 : When Harish is the child of Bhanu
|
Reference :
Krishna is the mother of Mohan, who is the only sister of Harish.
As Krishna is the mother of Mohan, who is the only sister of Harish. Thus Harish and Mohan are siblings.
So, Banti can't be mother of Harish, therefore case 1 fails.
Thus Harish is the daughter of Bhanu and Krishna is his wife.
