    Solution

    Since From (i), Kevin visits neither Jaipur nor Bhopal. Also from (iii), the one who visits Dispur likes Chinese. From (iv), one who likes Continental visits Bangalore and one who visits Chennai likes Gujarati. Therefore, the only city left for Kevin is Mumbai. Hence, Kevin visits Mumbai. From (vii), Rick likes Continental and also from (iv), one who likes Continental visits Bangalore. Therefore, Rick visits Bangalore and likes Continental. Since From (ii), Henry does not like either Assyrian or Punjabi and also from (vi), Susan and Jesse likes Gujarati and Garhwali not necessarily in the same order. Therefore, only cuisine left for Henry is Thai. Hence, Henry likes Thai. Since From (x), Tanya doesn’t visit Jaipur. So, the only city left is Dispur. Therefore, Tanya visits Dispur and also from (iii), one who visits Dispur likes Chinese. Hence, Tanya visits Dispur and likes Chinese. Now, only city left for Jim is Jaipur. Therefore, Jim visits Jaipur. Since From (viii), Tailor does not like Assyrian. So, the only cuisine left for Tailor is Punjabi. Now, only cuisine left for Jim is Assyrian therefore, Jim likes Assyrian.
