Option D is correct. Here's why:

This sentence contains two clauses, each requiring its own verb:

Relative clause: “who .... in the premises”

Main clause: “One ... has been asked to withdraw”

For relative clauses, the verb that comes immediately after the relative pronoun should agree with the noun/pronoun that comes immediately before it. Here, the relative pronoun “who” refers to “ladies”, not “one”. So, we must choose a plural verb to match “ladies”. This is because the relative clause is modifying the noun "ladies" and not "one of the ladies".

However, for the main clause "One of the ladies .... been asked to withdraw", the correct verb should be "has" so that it agrees with the noun "one of the ladies".
So, this means that the "ladies" being described here "sell in the premises" but "one of the ladies" has been asked to withdraw.

remember this
one of the lady who sell ☑️
one of the ladies who sells ☑️
the ladies are many selling many
things
so, one of them who also sells with them in the premises has been asked to withdraw 😁😎😎👍☑️

The correct answer is D🔥🔥
Who in the sentence refers to the ladies which is plural and it takes a plural verb "Sell" and "one of" them takes Has**

The subject is "one" which goes with singular and perhaps goes with "has"
