adoption of husbands child adoption of husbands child

1 year ago

We got married 3 years back and this is my husband's second marriage, he has a daughter from her earlier marriage, The first wife died in a medical emergency post the baby's birth, and grown in her father's care all these years, she is 6 year old now and we have built good bonding over last 3 year,

I read CARA site we need to file a legal case in the local court. https://cara.nic.in/parents/Eg_step_parents.html

I wish to legally adopt her to ensure all the records reflect my name for further purposes. what will be the process?

Does this need the above process or can be processed via an adoption deed, what will be the process to execute this in Karnataka? Thank you for your suggestion.
