Options:

D) Q
E) None of these
Solution:

Ans(d)

We will start off the question from the statement which says 'P was born in a month having 31 days....' 

P and S have their birthday in same month with P having birthday before.

We will have two cases -P's birthday will be either on 13th March or in 13th October. So Let us assume CASE I-their birthday is in March and CASE II-their birthday is in October.

There are two people who have birthdays between P and Q, So Q's birthday will be on 22nd June. R’s birthday will be on 13th June.

L was born in a month having 30 days which means either in June or September so his birthday should be on 22nd September. 

Now, O has his birthday on 22nd of a month so either on 22nd October or March.

From the statement which says "N does not have his birthday in March...." CASE I is ruled out.


CASE II - is final arrangement-
