Meet Ziona Chana. He has 39 wives, 94 children and 33 grandchildren. NewsFeed wonders if he remembers all their names.

This relatively unorthodox family lives in the Baktwang village in the Indian state of Mizoram. And whilst Chana says he’s “blessed” to have his 39 wives, they however sleep in massive communal dormitories, in the 100-room, 4 tale space, whilst he has a double bed all to himself.

But we couldn’t possibly leave the sleeping arrangements there. The youngest girls sleep nearest to Chana’s bedroom, and there’s a rotation system in position for the lucky woman who stops via her husband’s bed room.

As for the family, oldest spouse Zathiangi (to invite her age would simply be impolite), sure runs a tight send, as she’s tasked with ensuring her fellow wives (is that even the proper time period? This is one simply big bowl of awk-ward) perform the household chores reminiscent of cleansing, washing and the making ready of meals. And speaking of meals, one evening meal can involve the plucking of 30 chickens, peeling of over A hundred lbs of potatoes and boiling as much as two hundred lbs of rice.

(*39*) you’re questioning what the regulation says about this state of literal affairs, fear not, as Chana occurs to with ease be the head of a sect that permits participants to take as many better halves as they please. Chana’s file is marrying 10 ladies in 365 days — the RSVPing must have been a full time activity — and he doesn’t intend to forestall at 39. In truth, wife quantity forty may neatly come from America. As Chana delightfully puts in, “to extend my sect, I am willing to move even to the U.S. to marry.” In different words, if she makes a complete recovery, look out, Elizabeth Taylor.
