Here it is:

Question is: Who owns the fish?

Necessary clues:

2. The Swedish man keeps dogs as pets.
3. The Danish man drinks tea.
4. The Green house is next to, and on the left of the White house.
5. The owner of the Green house drinks coffee.
6. The person who smokes Pall Mall rears birds.
7. The owner of the Yellow house smokes Dunhill.
8. The man living in the center house drinks milk.
9. The Norwegian lives in the first house.
10. The man who smokes Blends lives next to the one who keeps cats.

jee Nadeem Bhai .... answer ka kiya hey ... wo tu kaheen sey sun k bhi log bata saktey hein :)

How one reached to the conclusion helps others to understand the answer ... aur waisey bhi Riddles chunki logics pey based hotey hein tu explanation to the answer may let some unexpected answer come up as the right answer as well :)

Hmm lemme try to solve it now...5nations k persons hain aur 1st house mein Norwegian rehta hai as mentioned in clue 9...ab yahan yeh mention nahi k left se 1st house ya right se tu i'll take it as left as am a left handed person lol...

1. House 1-Norwegian
2.
3.
4.
5.

now clue 8 says men in the center house drinks milk so lemme mention it at no.3

1. House 1-Norwegian
2.
3. House 3- ....... - Milk
4.
5.

now going to clue 14 it says Norwegian lives next to the blue house so adding this below :

1. House 1-Norwegian
2. House 2-....... - Blue
3. House 3- ....... - ..... - Milk
4.
5.

Now clue 4 says The Green house is next to, and on the left of the White house also clue 5 says The owner of the Green house drinks coffee. So, the only suitable place for this is column 4 i.e.

1. House 1-Norwegian
2. House 2-....... - Blue
3. House 3- ....... - ..... - Milk
4. House 4- ....... - Green - Coffee
5. House 5- ....... - White

Now lets come to the 1st clue it says The British man lives in a red house. so let us fill up the 3rd column as its the only 1 left...

1. House 1- Norwegian
2. House 2 - ....... - Blue
3. House 3 - British - Red - Milk
4. House 4 - ....... - Green - Coffee
5. House 5 - ....... - White

now only Yellow color is left which of course will be the Norwegian's house color as all others are assigned house colors b4...also as clue 7 tells us that The owner of the Yellow house smokes Dunhill. so let us fill the rows now...

1. House 1- Norwegian - Yellow - ..... - Dunhill
2. House 2 - ....... - Blue
3. House 3 - British - Red - Milk
4. House 4 - ....... - Green - Coffee
5. House 5 - ....... - White

now as clue 11 says The man who keeps horses lives next to the man who smokes Dunhill. SO, this'll bcum

1. House 1- Norwegian - Yellow - ..... - Dunhill
2. House 2 - ....... - Blue - ....... - ...... - Horses
3. House 3 - British - Red - Milk
4. House 4 - ....... - Green - Coffee
5. House 5 - ....... - White

Now cums the difficult part :S light na chali jayai isliyai itna post kr raha hoon....

2. House 2 - ....... - Blue - ....... - ...... - Horses
3. House 3 - British - Red - Milk
4. House 4 - ....... - Green - Coffee
5. House 5 - ....... - White

Now clue 15 says The Blends smoker lives next to the one who drinks water. ab kyun k house 3 n 4 ka drink assign ho chuka hai tu un k next mein blend smoker nahi aa sakta tu blend smoker hua 2nd house wala as 1st jo smoke krta hia owh b assign ho chuka hai aur 1st house walay ka drink b decide ho gaya that is water...

1. House 1- Norwegian - Yellow - Water - Dunhill
2. House 2 - ....... - Blue - ....... - Blend Smoker - Horses
3. House 3 - British - Red - Milk
4. House 4 - ....... - Green - Coffee
5. House 5 - ....... - White

same as 15 clue 12 b solve ho gaya...woh hia k 12. The man who smokes Blue Master drinks beer. ab drink 3 houses ka decide ho chuka hia 2 ka reh gaya hai... un donun house mein se possible 5th ka banta hai as house 2 k smokes pehlay decide ho chukay hain... so it becums

1. House 1- Norwegian - Yellow - Water - Dunhill
2. House 2 - ....... - Blue - ....... - Blend Smoker - Horses
3. House 3 - British - Red - Milk
4. House 4 - ....... - Green - Coffee

Style Mantra has a spectacular aura aboutStyle Mantra has a spectacular aura about
1. House 1- Norwegian - Yellow - Water - Dunhill
2. House 2 - ....... - Blue - ....... - Blend Smoker - Horses
3. House 3 - British - Red - Milk
4. House 4 - ....... - Green - Coffee
5. House 5 - ....... - White - Beer - Blue Master

Now clue 3 says The Danish man drinks tea. So, there's only 1 place left for it i.e. house 2;

1. House 1- Norwegian - Yellow - Water - Dunhill
2. House 2 - Danish - Blue - Tea - Blend Smoker - Horses
3. House 3 - British - Red - Milk
4. House 4 - ....... - Green - Coffee
5. House 5 - ....... - White - Beer - Blue Master

Now cuming to clue 12 i.e. The man who smokes Blue Master drinks beer as the Danish drinks tea n British drinks milk so both these options rule out left 1s r Swedish & German...the clue 13 says German smokes Prince so it must be the Swedish who drinks beer & smokes blue master...

1. House 1- Norwegian - Yellow - Water - Dunhill
2. House 2 - Danish - Blue - Tea - Blend Smoker - Horses
3. House 3 - British - Red - Milk - Pall Mall
4. House 4 - German - Green - Coffee - Prince
5. House 5 - Swedish - White - Beer - Blue Master

also adding rule 2 i.e. The Swedish man keeps dogs as pets. & rule 6. The person who smokes Pall Mall rears birds.

1. House 1- Norwegian - Yellow - Water - Dunhill
2. House 2 - Danish - Blue - Tea - Blend Smoker - Horses
3. House 3 - British - Red - Milk - Pall Mall - Birds
4. House 4 - German - Green - Coffee - Prince
5. House 5 - Swedish - White - Beer - Blue Master - Dogs

also clue 10 says The man who smokes Blends lives next to the one who keeps cats. there's only 1 option that is left for it now i.e. house 1

1. House 1- Norwegian - Yellow - Water - Dunhill - Cats
2. House 2 - Danish - Blue - Tea - Blend Smoker - Horses
3. House 3 - British - Red - Milk - Pall Mall - Birds
4. House 4 - German - Green - Coffee - Prince
5. House 5 - Swedish - White - Beer - Blue Master - Dogs

so only German is left whose pet is not mentioned so he owns the fish...

1. House 1- Norwegian - Yellow - Water - Dunhill - Cats
2. House 2 - Danish - Blue - Tea - Blend Smoker - Horses
3. House 3 - British - Red - Milk - Pall Mall - Birds
4. House 4 - German - Green - Coffee - Prince - Fish
5. House 5 - Swedish - White - Beer - Blue Master - Dogs
