A.According to s. 10(iv) of Hindu Adoption and Maintenance Act, 1956 if a person has completed his 15 years of age then he can cannot be adopted, unless there is a specific custom or usage permitting such adoption. But I think there would not be any such custom in your cast/subcast. So your uncle cannot adopt you.
