The Correct Option is C

Solution and Explanation

Step 1: Understanding the key relation “my mother’s father”.
Ram’s mother’s father is Ram’s maternal grandfather.
Step 2: “The only son of my mother’s father”.
The only son of Ram’s maternal grandfather would be Ram’s maternal uncle if he exists — but here, if Ram’s mother’s father has only one son, that son could also be Ram’s own father. We must check context.
Step 3: Link with “Her mother’s brother”.
The girl’s mother’s brother is described as the only son of Ram’s maternal grandfather. This means the girl’s mother is the daughter of Ram’s maternal grandfather.
Step 4: Conclusion.
If the girl’s mother is also the daughter of Ram’s maternal grandfather, then she is Ram’s mother as well.
Therefore, the girl’s mother is \(\boxed{\text{Mother}}\) of Ram.
