If you are a Hindu girl then this relation will come under sapinda relationship, if you are Muslim girl then this relationship will be encouraged by the Muslim law and if you are of any other religion then Indian Marriage Act will be taken into consideration.. Again I would like to tell you if you belong to Hindu religion then it's going to be a great difficulty for you meaning thereby you cannot marry a person with whom you have sapinda relationship

Hindu law does not allow the marriage between the prohibited degree of relationship or what we call the sapinda relationship.
The only way to marry is to convert into other religion that practice too has been denounced by the supreme court as being conversion for material gains..

If you married with each other your marriage would be void according to hindu marriage act beacuse yor are going to do marriage in prohibited relationship. ... So if your relation is not close to him so you can do .

It will fall under prohibited marriage relationship and it is not valid in the eyes of law. But if you still want to marry and if your families do agree then it could be done. But it may create lots of confusion in your relationship and for your children.

First, you have to mention what religion you are from, then only it is to be seen whether it is possible to inform you about it, however, if you are Hindu and if such maariages are not a custom in your family then it is not possible in law to marry your cousin.
