An extraordinary occurrence unfolded within an Indian family as a 94-year-old farmer welcomed his first child into the world. Remarkably, just two years later, he was blessed with a second son.
The year 2010 marked the beginning of Ramajit Raghav’s journey into parenthood. His wife, Shakuntala, who is a full four decades his junior, gave birth to their first child.
Simultaneously, this Indian farmer achieved recognition for being the father with the highest “average age.” A year later, the couple received the news that they would soon be parents to another baby boy.
While Ramanjit and Shakuntale had hoped for a daughter, their second child, born in 2012, was also a boy.
The 96-year-old Indian attributed the phenomenon of late parenthood to his lifelong habits of spending time outdoors, breathing clean air, and consuming homegrown vegetables from his garden.
Tragically, Ramanjit’s life was cut short at the age of 105, leaving behind an astonishing legacy. His record as the father with the highest average age remains unbroken.
Our best wishes go out to the little ones and their mother, and we eagerly anticipate their future achievements and successes in life.
