The local population in a small village in Rajasthan's Bharatpur area has been riveted by a unique event. A baby girl's unusual genetic abnormality has been welcomed by her devoted family as an astonishing manifestation.

The infant girl, who was welcomed into her family as if she were a manifestation of the venerated goddess Dholagarh Devi, was born with a total of 26 fingers—seven on each hand and six on each foot. Sarju Devi and Gopal Bhattacharya, her parents, were ecstatic about the novel member of their family. Gopal Bhattacharya, a devoted head constable in the Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF), was overjoyed with the birth of his unique daughter and was unable to conceal his joy.

My sister has given birth to a baby who has 26 fingers, and we are considering it to be the incarnation of Dholagarh Devi.

The phenomenon has been discovered as an uncommon genetic aberration, despite the fact that the family celebrates her as a miraculous incarnation. A doctor named Dr. BS Soni stated that the child's health would not be harmed by having 26 fingers. According to reports, the baby is in great health, giving the family peace of mind that their beloved baby girl is healthy and growing.

From the description of the scenario, it seems to be a case of Polydactyly - a well-documented clinical anomaly in medical science. Polydactyly often occurs as an autosomal dominant condition and often family history of someone having extra digits in nearones is elicitable.

The young child hailed as a goddess incarnate, has brought her family and community countless joys by accepting her remarkable presence in their lives.
