C Correct answer
Explanation

Let Vipin's age = V. Neelam = V - 2. Neelam:Praveen = 4:3, so Praveen = 3/4 × (V - 2). After 15 years, Praveen = 33, so current Praveen = 18. Therefore 3/4 × (V - 2) = 18, giving V = 26. Father Sushil = V + 20 = 46 years. Option A is 44 years (incorrect). Option B is 42 years (incorrect). Option D is 40 years (incorrect).
