Not that I’d question the perversity or bloodymindedness of India’s (or anyone else’s) bureaucracy, to be fair it can take longer than six years for British parents to adopt British children in Britain. By any standards, our procedures are too cumbersome for would-be adoptive parents’ sanity or – more to the point – children’s welfare.
