Sister of Ram who is coming from Delhi, has stood first.
Here 'who' qualifies Ram or his sister ??
Further if I'm not wrong Ram's sister who is coming... in following sister 'who' qualifies sister...

In the original sentence, who qualifies Ram and not sister. Here Ram is coming from Delhi, but his sister stood first.
In your statement, who may qualify sister, but not in the same meaning like the original one. If the sentence is Ram's sister who is coming from delhi stood first; then it means: ram's sister is coming from delhi and she only stood first,not ram.

Hope i am clear. feel free to ask.

Hi,
I think 'who' refers to Ram in your first sentence as Ram is the antecedent of the relative pronoun 'who'.

Cheers!

Hi,

Nice question, and i thought to share my views too. We know that WHO introduces a relative clause.
So far what i learned from OG and other resources, the pronoun initiating the relative clause must be placed close to its antecedent. Applying that same knowledge i believe WHO is referring to RAM not the SISTER.

Also for more clarity see:

Sister of Ram who is coming from Delhi, has stood first.

Here SISTER is the subject of the main clause and HAS STOOD is the MAIN SUBJECT...so if u say that WHO is referring to SISTER in that case imagine the meaning, SISTER is coming from Delhi and also Sister has stood first...means sister is doing both the things...illogical
Thanks
