A baby girl born in Aligarh, India is getting a lot of attention, as locals believe she is an avatar of Hindu god, Lord Ganesha, due to the trunk-like structure she was born with in the center of her face.

A handful of locals are gathering at the small home of the parents, Om Prakash and Sarvesh, to worship the baby. The locals are saying that the protrusion on the baby’s face is similar to that of Lord Ganesha’s.

Since last Thursday, when the baby girl was born, a steady stream of visitors have been pouring into the small house, and some villagers are even making offerings to the infant.

Most visitors that came sang and rejoiced upon seeing the baby’s face, as they believed that the unnamed baby is a true incarnation of the Lord Ganesha, one of the five most popular deities in Hinduism.

Rejoicing over the situation, Rajani, the baby’s aunt, said “my sister-in-law gave birth to a girl at 7:00 a.m. and her face looks exactly like Lord Ganesh. Everybody is saying she is an incarnation of the god. This is why whoever hears about her is coming here to get a glimpse of the baby and are making whatever offerings possible.”

Lord Ganesha “is the Lord of success and destroyer of evils and obstacles. He is also worshipped as the god of education, knowledge, wisdom and wealth.”

Amidst the frenzy and widespread news of Lord Ganesh’s incarnate being birthed, doctors have explained that the trunk-like structure on the baby’s face is actually due to a gene mutation that comes as a result of pollution and malnutrition, ANI reported.
