A.Dear client,
As a sapinda can be from either your father's or mother's side, you are not eligible for a Hindu marriage if you marry one. However, even if a sapinda relationship is illegal under the law, a person's tradition may allow them to marry another person.

A.Dear Sir,
A sapinda can be someone from your father's side or mother's side hence, you are not eligible for a hindu marriage if you marry someone who is a Sapinda. However, in some cases, despite a sapinda relationship being prohibited by law, a person's custom might still permit a marriage with another person.
