correct answer : b)
Explanation:
In the structure ‘one of those [noun] who + verb’, the verb agrees with the plural noun (those students), not with ‘one’. So ‘are’ is correct: ‘one of those students who ARE always on time.’
‘One of those [noun] who + verb’ संरचना में क्रिया बहुवचन संज्ञा के अनुसार होती है। ‘Those students’ = बहुवचन, इसलिए ‘are’ सही है।
