Select one answer
Answer and explanation

Correct answer B

The photo is of Abhijit's son. Abhijit has no brothers or sisters, so "my father's son" is Abhijit himself. The man's mother is therefore Abhijit's wife, which makes the man Abhijit's son. He cannot be Abhijit's brother (Abhijit has none), and a cousin or uncle would not have Abhijit's wife as mother.
