Adoption Regulations 2017

The Supreme Court last month issued a notice in a matter seeking simplification of the adoption process in India. A bench, comprising Justices DY Chandrachud and Surya Kant, heard the petition in which the counsel for the petitioner highlighted the ground reality with respect to the adoption process in India and the kind of impact it has had on the country over a period of time.

The Delhi High Court has issued notice to the Central Adoption Resource Authority (CARA) in a petition filed by a couple, who are Overseas Citizen of India (OCI) card holders and had registered with CARA for adoption of a child in 2018.
