Kartik starts from Point A and drives 42 km towards South.
He then takes a left turn, drives 25 km, turns left and drives 12 km.
He then takes a left turn and drives 20 km.
He takes a final right turn, drives 30 km and stops at Point P.
Thus, Kartik should drive (25 km - 20 km) 5 km in the west direction in order to reach Point A again.
Hence, "Option 2" is the correct answer.
