Step-by-Step Solution

Paper 1: Wed 3 Nov. Paper 2: Fri 5 Nov. Two days later is Sunday 7 Nov, so paper 3 moves to Mon 8 Nov. Paper 4: Wed 10 Nov. Paper 5: Fri 12 Nov. Sunday 14 Nov is skipped again, so paper 6 is Monday 15 November. (13 November ignores the Sunday rule; 14 November is a Sunday.)
Answer: A) 15 November
