The correct answer is:
B

Since voltmeters are ideal, so no current flows through voltmeters. Now current I through resistances.

Potential difference across

This potential will be divided equally between and . So

After closing the switch, current will remain same. But Now

. across

across 2

Hence [(I)‐(R)] [(II)‐(Q)] [(III)‐(R)] [(IV)‐(S)]
