Legal Question in Family Law in India
I am married for a second time and have a daughter (10 yrs old) from my first marriage. She is under my legal custody since the past 6 years. My second husband also has a daughter (15 yrs old) who lives with her mother. Under Indian law, can my second husband adopt my daughter? My ex-husband and my daughter's biological father is willing to give his consent for the adoption in writing.

Presently there are chances but after five years it is not possible.
But everything depends upon the court.
