adoption

Querist : Anonymous (Querist) 19 July 2010 This query is : Resolved 
sir,
my wife and me are Cristian persons. we don't have any baby. we want to adopt a 06 months old baby from another Cristian family. parents from both the sides are agree. but the problem is that under which Act/law we submit adoption deed to the sub-registrar?
kindly suggest me the law and what if another family is Hindu?
Raj Kumar Makkad (Expert) 19 July 2010
The provisions of Hindu Adoption and Maintenance Act are applicable if either of the spouse taking or giving the child in adoption is Hindu so submit adoption deed accordingly.

Yes

the correct law to be adopted is the Guardian and Wards Act which applies to christians in india.

if the other family is hindu family also the same law applies since the adoption is inter religious.
