Neha says, "Rajan's mother is the sister of my mother's husband's father's only son." How is Rajan related to Neha?
Rajan is Neha's cousin. Neha's mother's husband is her father, and his father's only son is the same father. Rajan's mother is that man's sister, Neha's paternal aunt, so Rajan is the aunt's son and hence Neha's cousin.

Explanation
Neha's mother's husband is Neha's father. His father's only son is Neha's father himself. Rajan's mother is the sister of Neha's father, so she is Neha's paternal aunt. Her son Rajan is therefore Neha's cousin. Nephew is wrong because that would need Rajan's parent to be Neha's sibling.
