Your Custom does not permit such a marriage.

The Law does not permit such a marriage.

In this situation, how can anybody provide/give any suggestion?

The Hindu Marriage Act makes cousin marriage illegal for Hindus with the exception of marriages permitted by regional custom. ... However, for some communities in South India, it is common for Hindu cross cousins tomarry, with matrilateral cross-cousin (mother's brother's daughter) marriages being especially favored.Marrying your first cousin carries some risk. But the odds of healthy offspring dramatically improve with each new distance of relation.
