He said that Geeta had already given birth to three sons and one daughter and his eldest son is now 15 years old.
Shanta said that Geeta was initially admitted at Bishnupur district hospital this morning, however she was referred to RIMS hospital later.
Doctors said that all the infants are now kept under observation at NICU Paediatric Ward of the hospital.
Among these five infants, two of them weigh 900 gm and one baby weighs 800 gm while another baby girl weighing 700 gm died soon after her delivery.
Delivery of all the babies took only seven minutes.
Dr Tete, Dr Ahron and Dr Shivani helped the mother deliver the infants.
