Mother Teresa Missionaries of Charity is known to assist the disadvantage groups as well as for other social works. The Catholic sisters has its institution under the name Nirmala Shishu Bhawan which provides shelter, food, medical care and education to abandoned and destitute children as well as children with special needs.
The adoption regulation of the Insitutions is that it provides adoption only to married couples. Prospective parents who are either divorced, separated or single can not adopt from the institution.
Unfortunately the government of India has passed on new rules which opens up adoption for single, divorced and separated prospective parents. The Missionary Charity doesn't agree to this new rule so they have opt to stop adoption completely.
Speaking about the decision not to offer adoptions, Sister Amala told local media: "The new guidelines hurt our conscience. They are certainly not for religious people like us. ... What if the single parent who we give our baby [to] turns out to be gay or lesbian? What security or moral upbringing will these children get? Our rules only allow married couples to adopt."
