Supreme Court gives Muslims right to adopt child

[Deepak Debnath]

The Supreme Court bench said the right to adoption is conferred by a law and functioning of this cannot be negated by a personal law order. The apex court said the time is not suitable to declare the right to adopt a fundamental right, even though it said all individuals have a legal right to adopt a child. The apex court said Muslims could adopt a child under the juvenile justice law, as its enforcement could not be obstructed by the Muslim personal law.
