Answer 1

The correct answer is maternal uncle.

Manish is a maternal uncle to the man in the photograph.

Reasoning:

In other words, she Manish’s only sister. Therefore, the son (the person in the photograph) of the only daughter of the father of my brother is the son of Manish’s only sister that implies the Manish is the maternal uncle of the person in the photograph because he is that person’s mother’s brother.
