Conclusion
The right of adoption for Christians in India has come to be judicially recognised, but it has to be pleaded and proved on the facts of each case. In the absence of a customary adoption recognized by court or adoption orders obtained under the provisions of the Juvenile Justice (Care and Protection of Children) Act 2006, the foster children will not be treated in law as children and upon the death of the foster parents their estate would be distributed among the legal heirs of the intestate as the foster child or children do not have any right of succession.

Famous quotes containing the word conclusion:
“I have come to the conclusion that the closer people are to what may be called the front lines of government ... the easier it is to see the immediate underbrush, the individual tree trunks of the moment, and to forget the nobility the usefulness and the wide extent of the forest itself.... They forget that politics after all is only an instrument through which to achieve Government.”
—Franklin D. Roosevelt (1882–1945)
“Human affairs are so obscure and various that nothing can be clearly known. This was the sound conclusion of the Academic sceptics, who were the least surly of philosophers.”
—Desiderius Erasmus (1469–1536)
“It is a great many years since at the outset of my career I had to think seriously what life had to offer that was worth having. I came to the conclusion that the chief good for me was freedom to learn, think, and say what I pleased, when I pleased. I have acted on that conviction... and though strongly, and perhaps wisely, warned that I should probably come to grief, I am entirely satisfied with the results of the line of action I have adopted.”
—Thomas Henry Huxley (1825–95)
