Which one of the following is not condition with regard to the persons who may be adopted, under Hindu Adoptions and Maintenance Act, 1956?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer C
Under the Hindu Adoptions and Maintenance Act, 1956 the person to be adopted must be a Hindu, must not already have been adopted and must ordinarily be under fifteen years of age, but the child's own consent is not a condition. Hence "He or she must consent to adoption." is not a condition.
