ABSTRACT:

In this paper we will be seeing about adoption by a Hindu married woman under the HINDU ADOPTION AND MAINTENANCE ACT 1956. The Adoptions and Maintenance Act of 1956 dealt specifically with the legal method of adopting kids by a Hindu adult, and with the legal obligations of a Hindu to produce "maintenance" to numerous members of the family together with their married woman or wives, parents, and in-laws. In this paper, I conducted a survey through a well structured questionnaire. About 1629 people answered the survey on the questions relating to adoption by a Hindu women. The result for my research has turned out to be positive.

Keywords: Hindu married woman, HAMA 1965, Family, Survey, Adoption.
