Explanations
Only Anu and Bhanu are at extreme ends i.e at 1st or 7th place.
Monu is next to Bhanu, Tanu is sitting between Monu and Sonu. The possible arrangements of this information are either: Bhanu(1)-Monu(2)-Tanu(3)-Sonu(4) or Sonu(4)-Tanu(5)-Monu(6)-Bhanu(7).
Dhanu is sitting second from west i.e in 2nd position. So, it is Dhanu(2)-Sonu(4)-Tanu(5)-Monu(6)-Bhanu(7).
Since Anu has to be at an end, he is at the first position, which leaves Janu at the third position. So finally, the arrangement becomes:
Anu (1)-Dhanu(2)-Janu(3)-Sonu(4)-Tanu(5)-Monu(6)-Bhanu(7)
