World's Oldest Dad Fathers baby at 96

Ramjit Raghav was awarded the title two years ago when he had his first born son Karamjit aged 94.



When Shakuntala gave birth to the healthy boy earlier this month at the Government hospital in Haryana, the doctors laughed when Ramjit said he was the father.

He said: ‘They just laughed but they were very surprised.’
Ramjit, who lives with his family in a studio apartment, has high hopes for his sons.

“I do it three or four times a night. My neighbours are jealous and they keep asking me for my secret but all I tell them is that it is God’s will. I’m healthy and I enjoy sex with my wife. I think it’s very important for a husband and wife to have sex regularly and when she asks I will go on all night but for the sake of my child I’ve put our needs aside for now.”

He said: ‘I have been a farmer all my life. But I want them to become high ranking government workers. The pair met 22 years ago on a rainy morning at a Muslim shrine, Ramjit asked her to come home with him and she has never left.

'She didn't have any family or friends around, and I wanted to help her,' he explains. 'I took her under my wing and taught her some yoga and we fell in love. Many of my past girlfriends had died so I had never married and then I asked Shakuntala to be my wife.' Shakuntala believes she would have been dead by now if it was not for Ramjit's caring ways.

She said: ‘It doesn't matter how old he is, I love him and I care for him dearly even, though he shouts at me sometimes.

‘He doesn't seem old to me, he can make love like any 25-year-old man, even better.
