Gujarat police arrest Bangladeshi’s under ‘Operation Delta Hunt’
Gujarat Police have detained 362 suspected illegal Bangladeshi nationals as part of a large-scale statewide operation named Operation Delta Hunt. The 72-hour crackdown was launched to identify individuals allegedly residing in Gujarat without valid legal documentation. The operation was conducted simultaneously across several districts, with police teams carrying out raids, identity checks and verification drives in areas where undocumented migrants were suspected to be living or working. Officials said the initiative forms part of a broader effort to enforce immigration laws and identify foreign nationals staying in the state illegally. According to authorities, 362 individuals have been detained so far, while the legal status and nationality of more than 780 others are currently being verified. Police are examining identity documents and conducting background checks to determine whether any further action is necessary. The operation involved local police units, crime branch personnel and intelligence teams working together to track and verify suspected undocumented migrants across the state. Officials have stated that verification drives and enforcement measures will continue in the coming days. They have also appealed to the public to cooperate with authorities and share information that may assist ongoing investigations. The inquiry remains underway, and police are expected to provide further updates as the verification process progresses. The outcome of the ongoing checks will determine whether additional detentions or legal proceedings are initiated.
Ex Wipro employee alleges religious harassment in Hinjawadi
A former Wipro employee has alleged that she faced religious harassment, workplace discrimination and pressure to resign while working at the company’s Hinjawadi office in Pune. According to her complaint, a colleague repeatedly encouraged her to convert to Islam and allegedly urged her to pursue a relationship with a Muslim man. The woman claims the colleague frequently interfered in her personal life and suggested that changing her faith would improve her quality of life and create better opportunities, including the possibility of working abroad. She further alleges that despite reporting the matter to company management through internal channels, no meaningful action was taken. Instead, she claims a complaint was later filed against her before the company’s Ombuds Committee and that her concerns were not adequately addressed during the inquiry process. In a legal notice sent to Wipro, the former employee has sought reinstatement, compensation and action against those she alleges were responsible. She also claims that the company’s handling of her complaints ultimately led to her resignation. Police have acknowledged receiving a complaint and have begun a preliminary inquiry into the matter. However, no formal case has been registered so far, and authorities are currently examining the allegations. Wipro has not publicly responded to the claims. The allegations remain unverified, and no conclusions have been reached by law enforcement agencies or the courts regarding the matter.
Obsession (2026) Review: The Horrors of Unearned Love
Obsession Review: The horrors of unearned love The last couple of years has seen the explosion of a niche category of Youtubers making indie horror films: with the success of Weapons, Together, Talk to Me and now Obsession; something seems to have broken through the market. It seems like Youtubers have a more acute sense of what is going on in the culture than big budget studios whose executives and staff could not be more alienated from the common folk. This reveals a lot of things – people are getting tired of seeing the same stars reenacting the same roles in front of what they know is a green screen, people are sick of superheroes and there is an overwhelming sense of superhero fatigue settling in on all of us, youtubers seem to have an advantage in terms of what the current audience wants. This could be the dawn of something new and exciting, big studios could either hand over their trust to these young and upcoming filmmakers (Curry Barker, Michael Shanks, Kane Parsons) or they could keep going down this self-destructive path of not changing anything at all. This phenomenon has all of a sudden injected some life into modern filmmaking which it needed desperately. Out of this phenomenon has also emerged the incredibly slock and often terrifying – Obsession, made by 26 year old Curry Barker, best known as one half of the YouTube comedy duo “that’s a bad idea” with Cooper Tomilson. What struck me the most about Obsession was its freshness and its attempt to bring in something original to a world that is becoming increasingly stale. The visual language is strong and indicates that Barker has confidence in his vision of what the film should look like, there are lots of scenes where the lighting has been intentionally dimmed and repurposed for the sake of mood and world building – one of the many examples of confident choices that may not have happened in a film funded by the big studios. The film centers around Baron “Bear” Bailey who is this quintessentially nice guy, the archetype of the sensitive young man – someone who does not have a lot of experience flirting with women. The first scene is revealing – Bear is trying to practice confessing to Nikki Freeman, his longtime crush, by making a waitress sit in front of him. Bear gets over his introversion and makes his practice confession, when Ian stops him immediately and tells him that Bear is doing too much. And Nikki, who is a chill girl won’t like it. The initial portions of the film are very sympathetic to Bear and understandably so, he is a sensitive young man who does not have the machismo to tell Nikki upfront that he likes her, and in the one attempt of his practising his confession, his best friend tells him that he was doing too much. Bear is a believable character because we as a generation have become increasingly hostile towards any form of sincerity, any showcasing of vulnerability and it is immediately deemed as cringe. Hence, we see Bear trying multiple times to confess to Nikki but failing to do so. Marred by his inner hesitancy, Bear becomes frustrated and purchases a monkey’s paw-esque wish granting toy called the One-wish willow where you have the opportunity to ask for one wish. With the news of Nikki’s imminent leaving, and Bear’s inability to muster up the courage to confront her about his feelings, he finally breaks and wishes through the one wish willow – that Nikki loves him more than anyone in the world. The wish comes true but not in the way that Bear would have liked it, Nikki becomes absolutely consumed by Bear. She instantly becomes murderously obsessed with him, trying to go home with him, trying to sleep with him, trying to invade every inch of personal space that Bear possesses. Nikki becomes absolutely erratic and it is clear that Bear’s wish has worked, and something supernatural has taken control of her. Herein lies the magic of the film – Nikki’s obsessive and demonic behaviour makes her seem like a completely villainous character on the outset – but the film makes it apparent that it is not Nikki herself that is doing these creepy acts. She is not in control of herself, she has no agency. Anyone who has no agency cannot be responsible for what they do – this idea is reflected in the film through the mini-breaks that Nikki experiences being possessed by the spirit of the one wish-willow. Whenever Nikki breaks from her possession she has no idea what is going on, and is often gripped by panic in such situations. Bear, even though he is creeped out by Nikki’s supernatural possession, does not try his hardest to stop whatever is happening to Nikki. He lets the curse continue for some time and Barker shows us that Bear is constantly trying to make it work. Barker is, of course, concerned about Nikki and her self-destructive acts, but not to the point of sacrificing his own fantasies. They go through their honeymoon phase, not able to keep their hands off of each other and Bear enjoys all of it. Without bothering to wait and ponder over the nature of her love. When all is going well, Bear does not bother. “This is all I ever wanted,” he tells her. On the outset one would not blame Bear for his behaviour, after all, the woman that he loves the most loves him obsessively, to the point of saturation – how can one reject such a reality? How can one purposefully deny the one thing they have wanted all their life? Here we see Bear’s narcissism unravel: if he had truly loved Nikki, he would have been concerned from the beginning, trying to free from the curse that he had accidentally placed on her. But we see that it is in fact when things are not going
