CORAM:G.S. PATEL, J
DATED:13th April 2016
PC:-
1.After the last date, when I met personally with the minor, all
that remained was the Hepatitis report of the proposed adopters
and the supporting financial documents and property particulars.
2.Mr. Kapoor for the Petitioners tenders a updated compilation
that is taken on record and marked “X2”for identification. This has
the latest HIV and Hepatitis reports for the minor, an updated child
care statement dated 23rd March 2016, income, bank and property

statements and the Hepatitis reports of the proposed adoptive
parents. The medical reports are clear. The property and financial
documents are appeared to be in order. I make particular mention
of the child care arrangement which I have seen.
3.Although Praveen is older than is usual in such cases, in view
of my personal interaction with him, and since these updated
statements are now on file and appear to be in order, I am inclined
to allow this Petition. I am now anxious that Praveen should be
united with the Petitioners whom he already considers his parents
and begin his new life with them. I wish them all the best of course,
and I would consider it a pleasure and privilege to meet informally
with Praveen and his adoptive parents again when they are arrive in
India.
4. The Judge’s Order is separately signed.
(G. S. PATEL, J.)
