Thank you @Rathi & @Krunal.

Here equation is:

G = vE/(2(1+v)).
1+v = v2G/2G.

1+v = v.
(1/v)+1 = 1.

1/v = 0 or v = 0.

G = E/(2(1+ v)).
Where G is the rigidity modulus.
E is the Young's modulus(modulus of elasticity) and
v is the Poisson's ratio.

Acc. to the question,
G = 2G/(2(1+v)).

(1+v) = 2G/2G.

1+v = 1.

v = 0.
