Register online and adopt a child


People wanting to adopt children will be able to register ­online from January 2011. The Central Adoption ­Resource Authority (CARA), an autonomous body under the Ministry of Women and Child Development, has developed a web portal, "Carings" to ensure more transparency in domestic and inter-country adoptions.

"The portal will provide provisional online registration of Indian parents for domestic adoption and also status tracking by parents," said an official from the ministry.

"The main agenda is to encourage domestic ­adoption in the first phase of the project. Through Carings we will be able to provide a better platform to parents to register themselves with adoption agencies. Since it is the first phase we are focusing on registered RIPAs (Recognised Indian Placement Agencies). This website will help in numerous ways: channelising adoption procedures since relevant data will be managed by CARA; registration of parents will become systematic; delays will be taken care of; post adoption information from each parent will be monitored. We will also be able to track agencies in remote areas. If any agency does not follow the mentioned guidelines, its licence will get aborted. Parents will be able to view the details of the children only after the right match has been found depending on their background and requirements," said Anu J. Singh, secretary of CARA.
