1. G is the third person from one of the extreme ends.
2. Three people sit between B and C.
3. B sits adjacent to G and faces south.
4. Neither C nor D sit at the extreme end.
5. A and F are second to the left of each other. So, A and F must be adjacent to C.
6. Neighbours of D face in the same direction but opposite to D. Also, D does not sit at the extreme end.
7. Two people sitting at extreme ends face in the same direction.
8. Four of them are facing north while the rest are facing south. So, people of extreme ends face the north direction.
9. E sits to the left of H, who sits adjacent to neither A nor F. So, case 1 would be invalid.
10. E does not sit adjacent to F. So, E and H must be at extreme left and right ends respectively. Also, C faces south.
Hence, F sits immediate left of C.
