The newborn from the Bardhaman district of West Bengal in India, has just a single large eye and no nose, according to locals.

The animal was said to have been rejected by its mother - but then adopted by locals who are now caring for it.

Local reports claim it is being worshipped ''as a God''.

A source said: ''Ever since the calf was born, the people have crowded to see the bizarre calf.

''They are now considering it to be a miracle of God and have started worshipping it.

''The cow had been discarded by its mother and the women are feeding the cow.

''The people think that worshipping the cow is going to bring luck and prosperity to the family of whoever worships it.''
