Curious people recorded a newborn baby born with 4 arms and 4 legs.
A mother has given birth to a child who has double the amount of arms and legs than seen with other births – but locals believe there is a reason why the child was born different in India.
A baby born with four arms and legs has been idolized by locals who believe the child is an incarnation of God.
Since the baby’s birth on Tuesday, January 17, the newborn’s mother has been inundated with visitors at Sadar Hospital, eastern India.
The child’s gender is yet to be revealed, but its unique appearance and extra limbs have made it a local celebrity. Curious residents surround the child, taking pictures, with the extra limbs exposed.
The child can be seen resting in a basket filled with colorful sheets placed on the mother’s lap as she sits upright in a hospital bed.
While many believe the child’s condition is related to religion, doctors have confirmed that the birth defects are due to a pregnancy complication.
This incident follows the fame of a six-year-old girl in Uttar Pradesh, northern India, who was born with “two noses and a trunk,” previously reported by the Daily Star. The girl, named Lakshimi, was revered as a Hindu god, with locals believing she was an incarnation of Lord Ganesha.
