- DGrandmother
Explanation
The grandfather's wife is Arjun's grandmother. Her only son is Arjun's father, as the question states. The wife of Arjun's father is Arjun's mother. An aunt or sister-in-law would need another son in the family, and the grandmother is the starting point of the chain, not its end.
