Adoptions are done in India inaccordance with "Hindu Adoption and Maintenance Act - 1956" and "Guardians and Wards Act-1890".

This deed provides the adopted child a legal right in the family.
 
Adoption agencies are interested in bringing families together, it will be gratifying to know that the child is enjoying the stay with the adopted parents and hence parents are requested to send a followup report periodically, say every 3 months to the agency.
