State to use AI to detect fake applications in UG college admissions
Kolkata: The state higher education department will use an application driven by artificial intelligence (AI) in its centralised admission portal to weed out fake applications for undergraduate college admissions this year. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now The system, which was test-piloted during last year's admission, will be deployed with minor modifications this year to detect fake profiles, fake images, fake identities and block them. In 2020, actress Sunny Leone's name featured in the merit list of Asutosh College — she was the highest-scoring candidate for BA (Honours) in English. Investigation revealed the application was fake, a prank that had slipped through the verification process. There have been other instances when names of celebrities, including actors and footballers Messi and Ronaldo, were detected in undergraduate college applications. The higher education department hopes the use of AI tool will help it avoid such embarrassments. "We expect the enhanced AI-driven application programme to improve the integrity and efficiency of the admission process, ensuring that only genuine applications are considered. The use of advanced technology in this manner reflects a significant step forward in combating fraudulent activities during admission," an official said. Using the latest technology, the portal will be able to identify fake candidates by sifting through ID proof, mobile numbers, names and images. Last year, there were over 50 lakh applications from around 4 lakh candidates in the first phase. Using the AI tool, multiple cases were identified where names and images did not match, and they were blocked. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now The fake applications among them were identified and tracked. According to sources in Bikash Bhavan, multiple cyber cafés were identified where fake profiles were created. "The portal was able to weed out fake applications last year. The number of complaints was minimal. I am confident there will be even fewer fake profiles this year. We have the latest technology that can easily identify if a candidate is genuine or fake and block the fake profiles. We even have a mechanism that can recognise images," said an official. Several college principals acknowledged that the centralised portal had reduced the tiresome job of spotting fake applications. "Earlier, identifying fake applications was a huge challenge. Now, it is being handled efficiently by the centralised system. Inviting applications, sorting, and preparing merit lists — everything is being done by the centralised system," said New Alipore College principal Jaydeep Sarangi.

Adnan Sami breaks silence on his dramatic weight loss transformation: 'There was no bariatric surgery or liposuction'
Adnan Sami addresses public curiosity about his weight loss, dismissing surgery rumors. He reveals his father's illness and a doctor's warning served as a wake-up call, prompting a commitment to change. Guided by a nutritionist's high-protein diet in Houston, Sami shed 120 kg in six months through dedicated lifestyle adjustments, emphasizing discipline over surgical intervention. Adnan Sami 's incredible transformation has long been the subject of public curiosity and speculation. Now, the acclaimed singer and composer is finally telling his side of the story. In a heartfelt conversation, Sami sheds light on the emotional turning point that sparked his weight loss journey and puts an end to rumours about surgical intervention. No Surgery, Just Discipline In his recent appearance on India TV's Aap Ki Adalat with Rajat Sharma, Adnan recalled a turning point in his life that pushed him to begin his weight loss journey. At the time, his father was battling pancreatic cancer and took him to London's Cromwell Hospital for a check-up. The doctor gave a grim warning, telling him that if he continued with his current lifestyle, he might not survive another six months. While the warning initially didn't shake him, it was his father's emotional plea later that night—urging him to change for the sake of his future—that truly hit home. Deeply moved, Adnan made a firm commitment that very night to turn his life around and began working towards a healthier lifestyle. Guided by Nutrition, Driven by Determination The composer and singer clarified that his dramatic weight loss had nothing to do with bariatric surgery or liposuction. Speaking on Aap Ki Adalat, he shared that a skilled nutritionist in Houston designed a high-protein diet plan for him, which helped him shed the extra kilos. For those unaware, the singer had lost around 120 kg in just six months back in 2016, dropping from 230 kg through dedicated lifestyle changes.

Housefull 5 team's Pune event turns chaotic, Akshay Kumar requests crowd to calm down
The cast of the upcoming comedy film Housefull 5, including Akshay Kumar, Nana Patekar, Jacqueline Fernandez, Sonam Bajwa, Nargis Fakhri, Soundarya Sharma, and Fardeen Khan, travelled to Pune on Sunday for a promotional event. The fan gathering, held at a popular city mall, quickly turned chaotic as thousands of fans showed up, leading to a near-stampede situation. As the actors took the stage, excitement surged through the packed mall. Fans filled every corner — from the event zone to the upper floors and balconies. Videos now circulating on social media show emotional scenes, with young girls in tears and attendees at the back struggling to breathe and find space. Amid the rising tension, Akshay Kumar took charge. From the stage, he folded his hands and made a heartfelt appeal in Hindi, 'Haath jod ke binti karta hu, yaha auratein hai, bacche hai, please dhakka-dhukki mat kariye (I fold my hands and request you — there are women and children here, please don't push or shove.)' His calm yet firm message helped restore order. Once the situation was under control, the event continued as planned. The stars interacted with fans, danced, and even played phoogdi, a traditional game, spreading joy and laughter. Despite the rocky start, the Housefull 5 team managed to leave fans delighted, though the incident has raised concerns about crowd management and safety at such large-scale promotions. Directed by Tarun Mansukhani, 'Housefull 5' stars Akshay Kumar, Abhishek Bachchan, Riteish Deshmukh, Jacqueline Fernandez, Sonam Bajwa, Nargis Fakhri, Sanjay Dutt, Jackie Shroff, Nana Patekar, Chitrangada Singh, Fardeen Khan, Chunky Pandey, Johnny Lever, Shreyas Talpade, Dino Morea, Ranjeet, Soundarya Sharma, Nikitin Dheer, and Akashdeep Sabir. The makers had dropped a teaser on April 30, marking 15 years of the Housefull series. It featured a new story, set on a fancy cruise ship and a murder mystery.
