      <description>&lt;p&gt;A baby girl born with two faces in a north Indian village is
being worshipped as the reincarnation of the Hindu god, Lord
Ganesha.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The three-week-old unnamed baby from Saini village in Uttar
Pradesh state, 30 miles north-east of the capital New Delhi, is
being hailed as a "miracle" child.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=""&gt;Hundreds of locals are flocking to seek her "blessing"
and, in keeping with Indian traditional, showering her parents with
money.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=""&gt;"At first I was a little afraid," Vinod Kumar Singh,
the 24-year-old father said of his first child born last month.
"But then I accepted whatever God gives."&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=""&gt;To the largely illiterate villagers from the
agricultural community the little girl is a reincarnation of Lord
Ganesh, the half person and half elephant, and one of the most
worshipped deities in the Hindu pantheon.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=""&gt;He is a highly benevolent god revered as the remover of
obstacles and creating new beginnings.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=""&gt;"It's a gift from God. Some people say she is like a
goddess," schoolmaster Harsharan Singh gushed.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=""&gt;Little, however, is known of the baby's physical
condition as her parents are not permitting doctors to examine
her.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=""&gt;"They are not aware enough that they should come in for
treatment," Dr M Ashmosd, who delivered the baby at the local
government hospital, said.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=""&gt;"I have told them that we are ready to do the CT s&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=""&gt;Another local doctor, Bridal Nagar, said she was not an
"abnormal baby" but just one with two faces living a normal life,
but who might face problems later on.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=""&gt;"And if she dies it's as God wishes," he added.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=""&gt;Last year surgeons successfully separated a
two-year-old girl from a conjoined headless twin and reconstructed
her body in a gruelling operation lasting nearly 27 hours in
Bangalore, southern India.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=""&gt;Born with four arms and four legs but a single head,
Lakshmi Tatma was named after the four-armed Hindu goddess of
wealth and is growing up normally.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=""&gt;can on her for free. But they have ignored me."&lt;/p&gt;
