6. R and Q face the direction same as M.

Here as we know that four persons are facing towards the centre and others are facing away from centre.  The above condition fulfils if R, Q and M face towards the centre. 

This also implies that O sits to the immediate left of S. Also, O and N are facing away from centre.

Hence, P sits second to the right of N.
