The correct answer is: E1-i1+i2R-i1r1=0
The given circuit can be drawn as

Applying Kirchhoff’s voltage law (KVL) in loop ABCD, we get
-i1+i2R+E2-i2r2=0 …. (i)
Applying KVL in loop ABFEA, we get
-i1+i2R-i1r1+E1=0 ….. (ii)
Applying KVL in Loop EFCDE, we get
-E1+i1r1+E2-i2r2=0 ….. (iii)
From the given options, only option (c) satisfies Eq. (ii), hence it is the correct equation.
