Good Job. OA is D.

Important thing to remember here is that that an objective case must always be used following the preposition "of". Objective case of who is whom.

Although I knew the answer, didn't know about restrictive and non-restrictive. So read this page :

Straight D.

The word in the commas must be a non-restrctive clause thats why A,B and C are out.

E is using "which" for people. "whom" is preffered for people.

Can you explain, why not B?

I was expecting this question from somebody. :-D

what is a clause
subject + verb + something else (may or may not)
B is "one of them who is blind"
subject (one) + subject (who) + verb + object. A clause or a sentence can never have two subjects. It can have compound subject but never two.

Very late, but be on the lookout for a "one of whom" SC on T-day.
