Kathmandu: Hundreds of people thronged the house of Sitaram Chaudhary in Saptari district in eastern Nepal to have a glance at the new born girl child with four eyes, two mouths and two noses.

Shamvawati, 24, wife of Chaudhary gave birth to the girl child yesterday, reported an english daily Kantipur.

As news of the birth of such a child spread, people from far and wide rushed to Chaudhary's house to worship her as an incarnation of goddess Bhagawati.

''The baby girl is in good health and can see with all her four eyes and sucks milk with both mouths,'' said her mother.
