The Text below is only a summarized version of the order pronounced
Matter related to inter-country adoptions. Attorney General of India demanded that period of three
months permitted for biological parents to relinquish their child needs to be reduced because
experience had shown that only 10-15 days period is generally taken by parents to make up their
mind. Supreme Court reduced period from three to two months.
