The correct answer is:
Charge on capacitor
.
Now when the switch is thrown to the left side, charge distribution on left capacitors will be as given below,
For parallel combination along point and , potential drop across it will be same,
Also, total charge in the branches will be equal to the initial charge on the capacitor . Therefore,
