MAAJABU HAYAWEZI KUISHA DUNIA HII YALEO
Deepak
Kumar Paswaan alizaliwa akiwa na mikono na miguu iliyokuwa
ikining'inia katikati ya tumbo na kifua, watoto wenzake wakawa
wanamkimbia, na hata wanajamii wengine walisema mtoto huyo ni shetani. 
Beaming
with delight little Deepak Paswaan shows off his normal body for the
first time since undergoing surgery to remove the legs and arms of his
underdeveloped twin growing out of his chest.
For years, Deepak, 7, from Bihar, India, had to suffer taunts and bullying from other children over the appalling disfigurement.
Some taunted him as a 'devil' and a 'freak' while others even viewed him as a god.

Kumar Paswaan, who was born with the legs and arms of his
underdeveloped twin brother sticking out of his chest, shows of his new
body for the first time since undergoing surgery
Hindu
pilgrims used to visit his home to worship him as an incarnation of
the god Vishnu, who is often depicted with more than four limbs.
Last year his family for help to get the unwanted limbs removed and give Deepak the chance of a normal life
And Deepak's world was turned upside down when leading surgeons from Bangalore's Fortis Hospital agreed to operate for free.

The
pioneering surgery, which was carried out last year, would normally
cost around £50,000, a sum his impoverished family could never have
dreamed of affording.
Happily the gruelling four-hour operation was a complete success.
Now fully-healed and looking like a healthy, normal seven-year-old, cricket-mad Deepak has been given a new lease of life.
Sasa ana furaha, yupo kama watoto wengine.
He
said: 'I can run faster than my two elder brothers - before I could
never keep up. I really like my new body. It's much more fun. I am very
happy.'
'When
he was born the doctors said he wouldn't live long but here he is and
apart from how he looks he is very healthy,' his father said at the
time.
'I am tired of being different. I just want to live normally,' his son said.
