RRB NTPC 2019 CBT 1 Question Paper (8-Mar-2021) (Shift 2)
The correct answer is
Maternal Aunt

Statement Analysis

Let's break down Suresh's statement to understand the relationships involved:

  • "His mother's brother" refers to the boy's maternal uncle.
  • "my mother's father" refers to Suresh's maternal grandfather.
  • "the only son of my mother's father" refers specifically to Suresh's maternal uncle (who is the brother of Suresh's mother).

Relationship Deduction

Suresh states that the boy's maternal uncle is the same person as Suresh's maternal uncle.

Boy's maternal uncle = Suresh's maternal uncle

For this equality to hold true, the boy's mother must be the sister of Suresh's maternal uncle. Since Suresh's maternal uncle is the only son of their father, it signifies that Suresh's mother and the boy's mother are sisters (sharing the same father).

Boy's Mother's Relation

Given that the boy's mother is the sister of Suresh's mother, the boy's mother is Suresh's Maternal Aunt.
