The correct answer is:
The instantaneous current in the circuit may be $V \sqrt{\frac{C}{L}}$.
When $S_1$ is closed, potential difference across capacitor is $V$.
Direction of current gets reversed when $S_2$ is closed.
When $S_1$ is opened and $S_2$ is closed,
$\begin{aligned}
& \frac{1}{2} C V^2=\frac{1}{2} L I^2 \\
& \Rightarrow I=V \sqrt{\frac{C}{L}}
\end{aligned}$
Total energy oscillates between capacitor and inductor.
