AN important PIL, which could have far-reaching implications on adoption rules, was placed before the Supreme Court in late August. It sought the removal of anomalies in the grounds for adoption and guardianship, to make them uniform for all citizens and also to make them gender and religion neutral.

P&H HC has ruled that a no-objection certificate (NOC) from the Central Adoption Resource Authority (CARA) or to follow a procedure under the Juvenile Justice Act, 2015 is not required if the Hindu adoptive parents has adopted a child directly from biological parents of the child.
