Madonna to Adopt from India?
Madonna has apparently given up her attempt to adopt another child from Africa because of her frustration with the red tape.
But, she has her heart and resources set on adopting this time from India. According to the Sun, she could fly out to “choose a baby” after she finished promoting her new album.
According to the USCIS, non-residents may not legally adopt Indian children and the law only allows for Hindus, Sikhs, Jains & Buddhists to adopt. However, foreginers may petition an Indian District Court for legal custody of a child and to take a child abroad.
From what I have seen, most adoption agencies as well as the Indian government will still only allow Indian families (at least one Indian parent) adopt Indian children. So, it will be interesting to see if Madonna is able to pursue with an adoption from this country because it is “easier”.
