The correct answer is option 2, that is, sentence C.

As the first sentence is already given to us, we know that the passage is about Atal Bihari Vajpayee's death and career. Logically, the next sentence would be D since it ensures a contextual and meaningful progression in the paragraph. So, the first two sentences are A and D. From here, the next sentence in the sequence should be sentence B since it continues to mention about the start of his career and is thus the most logical successor of sentence D. After this, from the given options, sentence F is the most logical sentence that should follow D. The sentence that gives the most logical shape to the paragraph after sentence F is sentence E. Hence, the sequence so far is ADBFE.

From the given sentences, it is clear that sentence C gives a logically and grammatically correct conclusion to the paragraph. Hence, the sixth sentence is C.
