As per our research, this is the first case in country where all the five babies are of same gender and have same blood group. We will send the application to authorities of Limca books through district administration," said Dr NP Pandey, chief superintendent of Ambikapur district hospital.

In the meantime, a facebook post (on the quintuplets) has raised and collected funds from US based doctors and businessmen for the treatment and nutrition of the babies. The amount has been transferred in the bank account of a senior journalist of Raipur who will soon be sharing the money with the parents, and will also be used for their education. District administration is also reported to have extended financial help to the parents.
