A newborn baby boy in Baruipur, a city in West Bengal State, India, stirred controversy as thousands flock to the town to get a glimpse of what they called a reincarnation of a 'god'. He was born with eight limbs: four legs and four arms. He is now dubbed as the "God Boy" because multiple limbs are trademarks of Hindu deities.

Local police authorities say that it is a daunting task to control the crowd around the premises of the hospital. Thousands of bystanders are shouting and pushing guards to enter. Officials said they have not witnessed anything like this. As thousands flock to get  glimpse of the baby, many of them have set camp outside the hospital.

A relative told reporters, "When he first came out we couldn't believe it, the nurses said he was badly deformed, but I could see that this was a sign from God. In fact, this is a miracle, it's God's baby."

However, medical experts say that the boy's condition is a result of the legs and arms of his twin being joined to him in the womb. As a result he has eight limbs similar to the Hindu god, Brahma. A 67-year old man from a neighboring village said, "When we first heard about 'God Boy' we were slightly skeptical. But we came to see because we were intrigued by all the news we were hearing from friends and others. When we eventually saw a photo of the child, it was a wonder." Chukka Rao added, "This is truly the son of the Hindu god Brahma, who also has four arms and four legs."

One of the policeman controlling the crowd said, "This is a freak baby and it is tragic, there is nothing godly about him at all. But the crowds are going berserk and clamoring to see the child."

The parents of the boy have not yet released their statement about the popularity of their son, who is dubbed, "God Boy".
