Hindu Baby with Tail
 

NEW DELHI, Jan. 12 (UPI) -- Thousands of people across India are flocking to Hindu temples to see a Muslim baby -- born with what appears to be a tail -- who is said to resemble the monkey-faced god Hanuman.

The 11-month-old boy with a 4-inch tail has been named Bajrangbali, another name for Hanuman.

Iqbal Qureshi, the child's maternal grandfather, who lives in Kharar town just outside Chandigarh in northern Punjab state, is taking Bajrangbali from temple to temple across various Indian cities where people offer money to pay their obeisance.

Qureshi showed journalists nine spots on the baby's body that he said were like Hanuman's and said his grandson was the Hindu deity's reincarnation.

Women and children have been offering money and bowing before the baby to pay their respect.

Hindus believe in miracles and reincarnation and Hanuman is among the most popular of Hinduism's more than 1,000 gods and goddesses.

UPDATE

Doctors fear baby with tail may not have long to live

Doctors in India fear a baby believed to be the reincarnation of a Hindu god may need urgent surgery.

The Muslim boy was born with a four inch tail and is worshipped as a reincarnation of the monkey god Hanuman.
