Sir, Do u mean to say that she is in a way sister to you? Hindu Marriage Act states few relationships as prohibited relationship for marriage,subject to customary practice. Such marriages can be challenged and nullified as per Hindu marriage act. hence kindly get a legal opinion before you proceed.
