The correct answer is option 1 i.e. Champa

Barsha is elder than only four other sisters: Barsha > -- > -- > -- > --

Champa is elder than Disha: Champa > Disha

Anu is elder than Farheen: Anu > Farheen

Emma is elder than one person only, that is Geeta, who is the youngest among all sisters: 

-- > -- > Barsha > -- > -- > Emma > Geeta

Barsha is elder than Anu: -- > -- > Barsha > Anu > Farheen > Emma > Geeta
