This baby girl is being worshipped in India – because she was born with three hands.
The infant was born on November 2 to mother Radhika Sahu with a small additional arm and hand growing out of her chest.
She has quickly become the talk of her village in the Bilaspur district of Chhattisgarh, India – with some even worshipping the tot as a God.
Her concerned family reported the extra hand – a one-in-a-million anomaly – to their local health centre, and their daughter was examined and found to be perfectly healthy.
Dr. B.P. Singh, in charge of Chhattisgarh Institute of Medical Science (SIMS) has recommended an operation to remove the hand and allow the child to live a normal life.

Since you are here
Since you are here, we wanted to ask for your help.
Journalism in Britain is under threat. The government is becoming increasingly authoritarian and our media is run by a handful of billionaires, most of whom reside overseas and all of them have strong political allegiances and financial motivations.
Our mission is to hold the powerful to account. It is vital that free media is allowed to exist to expose hypocrisy, corruption, wrongdoing and abuse of power. But we can't do it without you.
