HackerEarth Little Shino and K Ancestor problem solution

In this HackerEarth Little Shino and K Ancestor problem solution Assume that you are given an undirected rooted tree with N nodes and an integer K. Node 1 is the root of the tree. Each node is uniquely numbered from 1 to N. Additionally, each node also has a color and the color is an integer value.

Note: Different nodes can have the same color.

For each node, you are required to find the Kth closest ancestor from that node which has the same color.
