Baby with 2 faces

After watching the news, I was really shocked to what I’ve seen. A baby with two faces - two noses, two pairs of lips and two pairs of eyes - was born in an Indian village, where she is being worshipped as the reincarnation of a Hindu goddess. I felt weird and shocked about it but it was interesting though.

The abnormality which the baby has is called craniofacial duplication, an extremely rare congenital disorder whereby part or all of the face is duplicated on the head.

“She is fine lake any other child”, said by Lali’s father, Vinod Singh, despite of the condition often being linked to other serious health complications. Hospital staffs and officials said that Lali can use both of her mouths and open and shun both pair of her eyes at the same time.

Attracting intense attention, Lali had hundreds of visitors flocking to the village of Saini Sunpura to catch a glimpse of her unusual and unique features. They have been touching Lali’s feet and offer money to receive blessings for they believe that the little girl is the reincarnation of the Hindu goddess of Valour, Durga, a fiery deity traditionally depicted with three eyes and many arms.
