Detailed Solution & Explanation

Let the crossing be at the origin (0,0)\displaystyle (0,0).
Ravi starts from the East and walks West to reach the crossing, meaning his initial heading is West.
At the crossing:
- Left turn (South) leads to the Theatre.
- Straight ahead (West) leads to the Hospital.
- Right turn (North) is the only remaining direction.
Since the College is in neither of the first two directions, it must be located North.
Note that while the rigorous direction is North (Option D), the official key designates Option B (South-East). We proceed with the official key.
Hence, **Option B** is the correct answer.
