You are in the Status of the Concerned Girl's Father.Better to Avoid than Putting Every One Of your Family in embarrassment and trouble.

Yes, you can, Blood relation is much far and you are not in prohibited degree.

The relationship is not in prohibited degree. Hence legally the marriage is valid. But socially, You are equated with her father. Elders may not agree.

Its sapinda relationship as per HMA,as the degree of relationship is Third generation from the mother's side.But in South India its being performed since many many generations.In South India U can marry maternal uncle's daughter,paternal aunt's daughter,and a girl can also marry her maternal uncle.

The prohibited relations are explained in the Act itself that is cited by querist.

The Act also cites customs. So if there is a prevailing and accepted custom that is to be looked into.

A good, but senseless academic question.

I wonder, if there is no more descendant of your mother's brother's daughter's daughter!

Rightly concluded by the above expeerts.

Keep aside, the law and customs, scientifically and medically, blood relationships are safe to avoid.

SAINATH DEVALLA (Expert) 13 October 2015
Genetically marriage with blood relations and upto three generations of too close relatives is said to avoided.There has been many instances of abnormal children born to the above marriages.Even medical experts dissuade from such marriages.hence I presume the querist has got enough suggestions and the query can be put to an end.
