New Delhi: It was a priceless moment when the formerly conjoined twins Jaga and Kalia saw each other for the first time today after their separation surgery was successfully conducted at AIIMS, New Delhi two months back.
The twins were joined since birth in such a way that they could never see each other's face. But for the first time they saw each other after their bodies were separated. The two appeared to be glad to see one another as Jaga touched Kalia's face and smiled when they were made to sit next to each other today.
The hospital authorities informed that there has been considerable improvement in the health condition of the separated conjoined twins since the surgery conducted on October 25 and 26.
