  2. B
    Daughter-in-law
  3. C
    Daughter
  4. D
    Paternal Granddaughter

Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

Let's break down the relations systematically to map out the family tree:
Hema is the sister of Jagan's wife.

Tiana is the only sibling of Hema. This means Tiana is also a sister of Jagan's wife. Therefore, Jagan's wife, Hema, and Tiana are three sisters.

Tiana is the grandmother of Divija.

Giri has two children: Anita and Divija.

Mrunali is the daughter-in-law of Jagan. Since Mrunali has no son, she must be married to Giri, making Giri the son of Jagan.

Thus, Giri's mother is Jagan's wife. Tiana is Giri's maternal aunt. But since the statement says Tiana is the grandmother of Divija, and Divija is Giri's child, Tiana is a grandmother figure in the senior generation.

Consequently, Giri is the son of Jagan, and Divija is the child of Giri. Therefore, Divija is the granddaughter (paternal granddaughter) of Jagan.
