According to Gauss Law , charge q will induce charge –q on the inner surface of the shell ,so that charge on the outer surface of the shell is Q+q . Central charge q will be under the influence of electric field due to the charge –q on the inner surface of the shell .By symmetry ,the force should be zero .
