Dear student
Read the statement carefully:
"Violet-colored box is arranged below blue-colored box but neither of them is adjacent to indigo-colored box nor
below green-colored box."
From the above statement we can infer that Violet colour box is below blue colour box and above the green colour box.It is no where mentioned in the question that Green and Violet boxes are not adjacent.
