SiliconIndia, Posted: May 21, 2007
NEW DELHI – The United States leads in adopting children from India, reports SiliconIndia magazine. There were 945 no-object certificates issued to Americans between 2004 and 2006, according to India's Women and Child Development Minister Renuka Chowdhury's report to the Indian parliament. Italy was next, with 419 adoptions, followed by Spain and Denmark. The adoption patterns show that adoptions of Indian children are not restricted to countries with a large Indian Diaspora. The minister also told the Indian parliament that the government was not aware of any children being sold illegally to foreign nationals under the guise of adoptions.
