IN Bokaro, Jharkhand, the Hindu god Shiva has been reincarnated as an 87kg pumpkin.

The divine pumpkin can be seen at the Dundibagh vegetable market. Umesh Kumar, who found the vegetable, is delighted:

“Seeing it, I had an intuition that it is Lord Shiva. The pumpkin is oval in shape similar to a ‘Shiva Linga’. So I worship the pumpkin and offered it garlands and sweets.”

People have tired to buy it? Kumar has refused.“How can I sell my god?” he aks. But what will become of the pumpkin god?

A holy man has told Kumar that it must be worshipped until Mahashivaratri (next Sunday). After that it will be sliced up and handed out to believers.
