Please consider the below sentence
The only people whose interest will get hurt is/are businessmen.
is above sentence is correct? What kind of joining is that? I mean what is the grammatical term of such joining? Where online can I found such sentences to explore more?
The sentence is correct with the verb "are" to agree with "people".
By "joining", I think you mean the relationship between "people" and "whose". These are antecedent and relative pronoun. It can be said the the pronoun "whose" refers to the noun "people".
I suggest you use the search phrase "relative clauses with 'whose'" in a google search. You will get very many results.
