The door of Aditya's house faces the East. From the back side of his house, he walks straight 50 meters, then turns to the right and walks 50m again. Finally, he turns towards left and stops after walking 25m. Now, Aditya is in which direction from the starting point?

ASouth-east

BNorth-east

CSouth-west

DNorth-west
