Answer
Boojho cannot see himself in the mirror because light rays originating from him do not reach his eyes after reflection.
He can see the image of objects situated at P and Q because the light rays coming from P and Q get reflected by the mirror and reach his eyes.
Boojho can't see the image of object situated at R because the light rays from object R do not reach his eyes after reflection.
