Aizwal: In an astonishing incident, eight sets of twins were seen attending the same school and the picture has gone viral on social media.
The 16 children, comprising of seven pairs of identical twins and a pair of fraternal twins, all enrolled in the Government Model English Medium Primary School in Aizawl and has garnered attention of the public.
Lalventluanga, the Headmaster of Govt School, said that the school has had twins in the past semester but never a record-breaking eight pairs enrolled in a year. The teachers were having a discussion this morning, and much to our delight, we realize that we are having eight pairs of twins studying in various classes. Last year too, we had four pairs.
The most important thing is that the admission of these children has not been done under any planning. It is just a coincidence that all the children were admitted here together. The school is located in a Christian-dominated area and has a good reputation.
The school has garnered attention on social media platform X, with a viral photo by the account named @mizoraminsta along with the caption, “Out of two hundred pupils, eight pairs of twin siblings attend Gov’t. College Veng Primary School in Aizawl. It is uncommon to locate this in another institution.”
