B Correct answer
Explanation

We have three statements: (1) Aarman claims Suresh & Rakesh always lie. (2) Suresh claims Aarman is a liar. (3) Rakesh claims Suresh tells the truth. If Suresh and Rakesh both tell the truth, then: Suresh's statement "Aarman is a liar" is true, and Rakesh's statement "Suresh tells the truth" is also true. This makes Aarman's statement false (since he claims they always lie), which is consistent because Aarman is indeed a liar. Option B correctly identifies that Suresh and Rakesh are telling the truth.
