10. Ashok, Eesha, Farook and Gowri ran a race. Ashok said, “I did not finish first or fourth.” Eesha said, “I did not finish fourth.” Farook said, “I finished first.” Gowri said, “I finished fourth.” There were no ties in the competition and exactly three of them told the truth. Who finished fourth?
A. Farook B.Eesha C.Gowri D.Ashok

• Gowri finished fourth.
  If we consider Gowri to be lying.
  The remaining three must be true (given in question).
  Now Gowri says "I finished fourth" - which she didn't (assumption).
  Implying, fourth position is secured by someone among Ashok,Esha and Farook.
  However none of them is admitting this (in question statement).
  Ultimately indicating that Gowri is speaking truth.
  Therefore Gowri came fourth.

  directly given in question gowri finished fourth

• Esha.
  
  If we assume that Gauri is lying, then rest of the three are not lying. This means:
  Farook finished first.
  Ashok didn't finished 1st or 4th, so he could be 2nd or 3rd.
  Since Gauri is lying, she is not fourth, i.e. she is either 2nd or 3rd.
  So obviously Eesha is 4th.
