In case of evaluation of postfix expression , is the associativity always left to right?. If yes, why? If no, why?

Yes.

See this handy table of C's operators.

The postfix operators are:

  • ++ and --
  • () (function call)
  • [] (array indexing)
  • . (member select)
  • -> (member select)

And they are all in the left-to-right precedence group (2) near the top of the table.

I guess the "why" is since that's how the language is defined. There are no "natural causes" for these kinds of things, they're human-made you know.
