Surrogate Baby Trapped in "Limbo"

A baby born to a surrogate mother in India is now in limbo after the parents divorced and the mom decided she didn't want the baby.
"Commercial surrogacy has been legal in India since 2002 and the child born of such an agreement is then legally adopted by its biological parents. But Indian law does not allow single men to adopt."
Consequently, the baby is still in the hospital, and is now deemed an orphan. Lawmakers are unsure how to proceed or how to fully release the baby so she can be adopted by someone else. Source: Daily Mail (UK)
