We have one dad but 39 moms, in Mizoram

From the archive record

This is a video of the children of the world's largest family, singing and dancing. India has an uncontrolled population and surprisingly a man in Mizoram named as Ziona Chana, is responsible for around 120 children in India. Strange buut true, this is the largest family of the world which belongs to one man - Ziona. He has 39 wives, 86 children, 14 daughters in-law and 34 grand-children all living under one roof in a huge mansion which they lovingly call 'Chhuanthar Run' meaning 'House of new generation'. All together, the 174 members of the Ziona family live in Chhuanthar Run or in short (C.T.R), in a rather military-like fashion!
