You are an idiot! This phenomenon is pervasive all over the world. It has nothing to do with being a Hindu or Muslim or Christian. I guess you are just an uneducated hate monger. No wonder you use all upper case in your comments.
Also there is a distinction between sister and cousin. In your subject title you say "sisters", whereas in the body of your comment you say "cousins".

Let me educate you Jeremy.. Although I have never seen this happen, I do not doubt your claims. I would however like to clarify though that this is a very very rare thing in the hindu religion. Infact in most cases Hindus do not give their daughters and sons to families of the same 'gotra' or sub-caste for the fear of them being married to some distant cousin who they do not know of. This practise is common in Muslims though. For them it is not that far fetched. Beside do not even judge them for in their society and religion it is acceptable. Be broad minded. If you check up on your religion you will find lots of things that will make you gross out and go UGHHHHHHH....

Dear Mr.Williams. I know in India some people do marry amongst relatives and cousins. I do agree with you it is medically not right. But what do you say for this----- Look at this link. http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/europe/6424937.stm
People in the developed country try to marry their own brother/sister???? Is this not GROSS, Mr Jeremy Williams?
