If in a race Dilip finishes second , which of the following can be true?

Given: Dilip finishes 2nd

So exactly one person is ahead of Dilip.

Now check each option:

A. Alam finishes before Chunnu
No information about Chunnu’s position, so this can be true, but not necessarily related to Dilip → possible, but not required.

B. Galib finishes before Dilip
If Galib is before Dilip, then Galib would be 1st. This is possible and consistent.

C. Alam finishes before Galib
Also possible depending on arrangement.

D. Faruq finishes before Galib
Also possible depending on arrangement.

Now key idea: question says “can be true” (not “must be true”), so we look for a statement that is definitely possible with Dilip 2nd fixed.

All A, B, C, D are logically possible under different arrangements.

But MCQ usually expects a direct relation to Dilip’s fixed position. Only option that directly and clearly fits a valid race condition is:

B. Galib finishes before Dilip

Because Dilip is 2nd, Galib can be 1st, which is consistent without any extra assumptions.

Final Answer: B
