Pointing to a man, Neha says, "His sister is the wife of the only brother of my father's only daughter." Neha has no sibling other than the one mentioned and is the only daughter of her father. How is the man related to Neha?
The man is Neha's brother-in-law. Neha is her father's only daughter, so the brother meant is her own brother. The man's sister is that brother's wife, so the man is the brother of Neha's sister-in-law, which is counted as brother-in-law.

Explanation
Neha's father's only daughter is Neha herself. The only brother of Neha is her brother. The man's sister is the wife of Neha's brother. So the man is the brother of Neha's sister-in-law, i.e. the brother of the wife of Neha's brother. That makes him Neha's brother-in-law, in the usual sense used in this chapter.
