NH2 is O/P Directing for Electrophieles

in those cases 2 pi bonds will be directly adjacent

it creates -Ve charge at O/P which will stablise +Ve

yes it will however agar wo resonance kaise karega wo bhi dekho then meta one is the most stable here cuz baaki jagah the lp on N is unable to participate in resonance
