  4. D
    Either 2 or 3

Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

1. Kajol is between Piyush and Paresh. This yields two possible spatial subsets: or .
2. Gogol is between Ronnie and Piyush. This also yields two possible configurations: or .

By combining these links to form a continuous linear row of 5 people, we find two valid configurations:

* Arrangement 1:
* Arrangement 2:

The question asks for the person sitting at the extreme right end of the entire row relative to Gogol's position. In Arrangement 1, Paresh sits at the extreme right end. In Arrangement 2, Ronnie sits at the extreme right end. Therefore, the person at the extreme right can be either Paresh (Option 2) or Ronnie (Option 3).
