SSC Stenographer 2025 Question Paper (06-Aug-2025) Shift 2
The correct answer is

D

To solve this problem, we need to identify the pattern or rule that governs the group of figures and determine which one does not fit this pattern.

  1. Observe the patterns in the letters within each figure:
    • Option A: The letter 'Z'
    • Option B: The letter 'Y'
    • Option C: The letter 'A'
    • Option D: The letter 'L'
  2. The letters 'Z', 'Y', and 'A' in options A, B, and C are part of a sequence which can be related via their positions in the English alphabet:

Z = 26\text{th} letter, Y = 25\text{th} letter, A = 1\text{st} letter.

  1. Logical sequence: Options A, B, and C form a descending pattern in terms of decreasing position numbers. Meanwhile, option D has the letter:

L = 12\text{th} letter, which disrupts this descending pattern.

  1. Conclusion: Hence, option D does not follow the same pattern as the other letters, making it the odd one out in the sequence.

Therefore, the correct answer is:

Option D
