http://www.skynews.com.au/offbeat/article.aspx?id=807060A man in India has become the world's oldest father at 96 after his wife gave birth to a baby boy.
Ramajit Raghav, a labourer from a town in the outskirts of New Delhi has stated his claim as the world's oldest man to father a child.
His wife Shac**tala Devi, who is in her fifties, delivered their son Ranjeet on October 5 in a government hospital and is reportedly in good health.
The couple had already shot to fame in 2010, when at 94 years-old Raghav fathered his first son Vikramajeet.
Raghav reportedly claims not to have taken any medicine or performance enhancers to conceive his children.
He gives credit to his long celibate life for his current vitality, saying that he remained a bachelor and practiced celibacy until he met his wife then years ago.
Raghar's wife has now decided to undergo a tubectomy for permanent contraception to prevent further pregnancies.
The couple own two cows and avail old age pension as a source of income.
