U r wrong... Very wrong... If d current flows anticlockwise wen viewed at an end, dat end is d north pole

calm, calm,calm.
we all know that if current flows in anticlockwise direction, the position is the north Pole and if current flows in the clockwise direction, the position is the south pole.
According to this particular question, the current flows in the anticlockwise direction which is at point Q. So Q is the north Pole.

Well actually, MySchool is correct, if you look closely and do it carefully (and repeatedly) you'll see that your thumb points towards Q and not P. If you still don't get it simply follow this steps:
1. Thumb up with your right hand
2. Tlit or rotate the hand clockwisely at 90°
3. Look at the diagram given in the question and compare it carefully with the hand you positioned.
Your fingers are the directions the current flows then you'll see that MySchool is actually correct.
If you don't get it you're beyond help
, (just kidding), keep trying and watch closely. You could even search for helpful tips online. I rest my case.🧑

Is good we note that anything North is Anticlockwise by anything South is clockwise 

The correct answer is "A"
P is the North Pole. the diagram to compare with is a diagram of magnetic field around a solenoid, not the diagram of the Electrical method of making magnets.
The direction to which the current flows is Direction where the North Pole will be.
