Directions: In this section, each item consists of six sentences of a passage. The first and sixth sentences are given as S1 and S6. The middle four sentences in each have been jumbled up and labelled as P, Q, R and S. You are required to find the proper sequence of the four sentences and mark your response accordingly on the Answer Sheet.

S6: The NSD has promoted Children's Theatre as well.
P: Post admission, the students at NSD are required to undergo training of three year's duration.

R: The objective of the NSD is to train students in all aspects of theatre, including theatre history, production, scene design, costume design, lighting, make-up, etc.
S: In 1975, it became an autonomous organisation.
The correct sequence should be:
- APQRS
- BSRQP
- CQSRP
- DRSPQ
Explanation
S follows S1 with NSD becoming autonomous in 1975, R states its training objective, Q describes the two-stage screening of applicants, and P covers the three-year training after admission, leading into S6 on Children's Theatre. The sequence SRQP, option B, is the natural order.
