What people have to realise is that 1 time cousin or niece marriage does only SLIGHTLY increase risks, maybe 25% to 50% more.
What is more harmful is repeated cousin marriages, over-concentrating genes.
Thats why Pakis in UK have a genetic defect rate 10X the normal rate, not 1.5X the normal rate for cousin marriages
Far more important than quibling over gotra is to deliberately import fresh blood, for hybrid vigor, every 3-4 generations. Adding Assamese or Nepalese blood periodically will immensely improve the health of the gene pool of any caste
The only hybridisation that will definitely lower IQ is adding African or Australian Aboriginal genes
Australian aborigines mated with Denisovans , diverged 1 million years ago
And African negros mated with relict populations of Homo-Erectus ( diverged 1.7 mil years ago )
In both cases the hybridisation happened 40k years ago
