I differ with the explanation given.
C is the father of D, B is the Sister of C i.e D's aunt.
A is brother of B i.e C's brother i.e D's uncle.
If anybody do not agree with me, kindly reply.

Hey @Vinay,
If the Option given is nephew which is the near most relation to A & hence Whatever the options be when the sex is not mentioned we will not consider it & hence I think option c "nephew" is correct answer.
As far as my Knowledge if wrong please discuss further.
