Yes you can get a adoption deed executed and get the necessary changes in her all government documents and educational institutions. you can file a suit in court if they official do not agree to change the name in records based on the adoption deed. there is also a judgement of court in respect of the same which states that you have a right to change the name, surname etc.

adoption of children, who are not getting any referral for long time ·         Provisions have been made for adoption by relatives and step-children within new guidelines ·         A Relaxation Committee has been provided for to facilitate decision making in extra ordinary circumstances of adoption, bearing the best interests of the child.
