Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 2
The correct answer is Option (2) → Sahil
Join the comparisons into one chain from the highest score to the lowest, then count from the lowest end.
Ronit scored more than Sahil but less than Pavan: Pavan > Ronit > Sahil
Tenzin scored less than Sahil: Pavan > Ronit > Sahil > Tenzin
Qadir comes between Pavan and Ronit: Pavan > Qadir > Ronit > Sahil > Tenzin
From the lowest end: Tenzin is the lowest and Sahil is the second lowest
