Maternal uncle is wrong ans, because the gender of Bajpai is not specified.

Those who are thinking the correct answer is nephew please read the que correctly. It clearly says that.

How is Bajpai related to the man in the photograph?

So, you must answer from the perspective of the person in the photo.

Then Bajpai is his maternal uncle.

Vishesh said:   7 years ago
The Answer should be both maternal uncle or mother.

Since the gender of Bajpai is not defined, we can not get the relation of Bajpai with respect to the person shown in the photograph. Bajpai might be the only daughter of her brother's father, in this case, she will be the mother of the person shown in the photograph. If Bajpai is male then only he will become the uncle of the person shown in the photograph. Right?

Please correct me if my logic is wrong.

The father of Bajpai's brother is Bajpai's father.
Bajpai's father's only daughter is Bajpai's sister.
Bajpai's sister's son is Bajpai's nephew or Bajpai is the maternal uncle of the boy.

Here, the question says;
"How Bajpai is related to the man in the photograph?"
(Hence ans is: Bajpai is the maternal uncle of the boy).

But if Q was "How is the man in the photograph related to Bajpai?"
(In this case, answer would have been--> nephew).

What is the gender of Bajpai. Is that mentioned?

Gender can be male or female. Am I right?

MAT said:   5 years ago
It should be nephew right?

The son of the only sister is Nephew.

And if it is from the sister's son then it is maternal uncle.

Why can't we assume the only daughter as Bajpai? There, Bajpai gender is not mentioned.
