First it was the Perth twins and now it's the Spider Sisters!!!
After a lifetime of lonely nights on the road with a travelling
circus, conjoined twins Ganga and Jamuna Mondal have
finally found love - with the same man.
The 45-year-olds, who are known as the Spider Sisters,
have been single all their lives and suffered years of
rejection because of their unusual appearance.
But now they say they are happier than ever - after a chance
encounter with kind-hearted school teacher, Jasimuddin
Ahmad.
'It was love at first sight,' said Ganga, who shares four arms
and three legs with her sister.
'When we met Jasimuddin we both felt this was a man who
would truly love us. And he does - he loves us straight from
the heart.'
The trio have now been together seven months and live in a
village near Kolkata.
Ahmad works at a local school but also helps the sisters in
the evenings by driving them to performances.
Despite their love, they have no plans to marry, believing it
will not be accepted by the community.
The sisters have been taken to see a surgeon about the
possibility of being separated but have rejected the idea,
fearing it would endanger their lives and rob them of their
livelihood.
For now, they are simply happy to enjoy the love and
companionship they have craved for so many years and
determined to enjoy it for as long as it lasts.
'We hope he stays with us, it will be a great support,' said
Jamuna.
'If he wishes it too then we will be lucky. Otherwise our lives
will become as anchorless as ever.'
