Concept:The question tests recall of a specific scene where two characters, Salma and Ummi, meet for the first time.
Explanation:In the novel, Salma and Ummi are both newly admitted students at the university.
During the admission process, they met at the faculty registration point.
They were completing the registration exercise there when their first encounter happened.
The meeting did not take place at departmental registration, which usually comes after faculty registration.
It also did not happen at the school hostel or just anywhere within the university before registration.
Thus, the first meeting took place specifically at faculty registration.
