An Indian man who was born with four legs has become an outcast after villagers labelled him a devil.
Arun Rajput has had the two extra limbs - believed to be from an undeveloped parasitic twin - dangling from his back since birth.
But the 20-year-old says he has been forced to live the life of a recluse by those in the remote village of Farrukhabad in Uttar Pradesh, northern India.
Rajput said: "People laugh at me. They say I am a devil. No one respects me here because I look different. But I want to be like one of them. I want to work like other man."
The unusual defect has seen Rajput face jibes and name calling while growing up and many locals said his family was cursed.
His extra limbs mean he cannot sit properly, walking has become uncomfortable and he has to have tailor made trousers developed.
But the young man says he does not want to be treated any differently from others.
"I want to do normal things and be treated like a normal person," he said.
Now, Rajput who is the eldest of four siblings, is eager to have a surgery so that he can get a good education and fulfil his dream of becoming a teacher.
Rajput's poor parents, who work as daily wage labourers on farms, had taken him to several doctors when he was a kid but returned home when they were told the surgery would cost them 'exorbitant' amount.
He added: "I want to take care of my parents. I want to study and become a teacher."
His mother Lila Devi, 45, said: "He was born after 12 years of my marriage. We had eagerly waited for his arrival but when he was born, I could not believe my eyes.
"He was very weak. We took him to many doctors but no one took the guarantee.
"People call him with bad names. It hurts me most when they call him devil.
"He is a very gentle child. Very hardworking and wants to live a respectable life. I hope he gets rid of the extra limb and can be one of us."
Rajput and his mother are now hoping for a possible surgery so he can lead a normal life.

He was born after 12years of marriage, which means his mother has taken some certain steps while she was trying to conceive. Accept your fate man... #cantwatch

That you are born without any deformity worth His praise. Stop complaining of I am too short, too skinny, too dark, too fair, no 6packs, no big ass. We are all beautifully made and were created for a purpose.
ReplyDeleteIt's only in India that you see all these strange deformation...
ReplyDeleteAm sure the cause is from all those masala they put in their food...
This story is not straight abeg,
ReplyDeleteThe mother is 45yrs right?
The guy is 20yrs and the mother had him after 12yrs of marriage, at what age did she get married, 8?
Surgery will correct the issue though, all na money.
I pray he finds help.

ReplyDeleteWhere's the extra legs abeg? Me see only a young man poss to take photo with a stylish wrapper around his waist and something behind his back but certainly not legs. My opinion sha.
ReplyDeleteIt is well with him but seriously he looks scary
ReplyDeleteThe mother's name is missing an L?
ReplyDeleteThat's an insensitive thing to say
These strange birth cases occurs mostly in India
I'm surprised they labelled him a devil
They would have called him a god cos those people worship anything
I thought I was the only one who didn't see the joke in Stella's statement. Very insensitive and expensive: and of course, bvs will jump on that bandwagon. Not fair people.
DeleteIt's a pity.
ReplyDeleteOmo this is strange and scary!! And people would tag him anything cos he looks mysterious
ReplyDeleteWhen will things like this stop for pete's sake? It wasn't his fault Indians, accept and embrace him. Unfortunately, our comments here won't change anything but , I pray God sends him a helper.
ReplyDeleteOnly in india
ReplyDeleteStella, it seems you drink before you post stories. WTH is the meaning of 'the mother's name is missing an L'?
ReplyDeleteOnly in India
ReplyDeleteStory like this, are often common in Asia countries especially Indians,
ReplyDeleteI guess the saying which goes " you become you you serve is true.
They serve all sorts of animals and when there pregnant women give birth their kids tend to look like such, I guess this one parents worshipped an octopus!!
End time God help us oooooo
