Here, given persons are B, E, G, K, L, M and O.

1) E sits third to the left of M.

2) O is the neighbour of L and M. 

3) G sits two places away from B.

4) M and G do not sit adjacent to each other.

5) K sits four places away from B. Therefore, case 1 and case 2(b) are eliminated. Hence, the final arrangement is as follows

Since, before changing the position of K, B sits third to the left of him but if we change the position of K with L the position of B still remains same that is B sits third to the left of L.

Hence, B sits third to the left of L.
