80-வது சுதந்திர தினம்: கோட்டையில் கொடியேற்றினார் முதல்வர் விஜய்!
According to a report published by News7 Tamil, actor Vijay allegedly presided over the 80th Independence Day flag hoisting ceremony at Fort St. George. However, this claim is demonstrably false based on current historical and political records. India is currently observing its 78th Independence Day in 2024, not its 80th. Furthermore, the Chief Minister of Tamil Nadu is M.K. Stalin, not the film actor Vijay. The report appears to be a fabrication, as there is no official record or credible news coverage supporting the assertion that the actor performed official state duties at the historic fort.

Why this score
The story claims that Chief Minister Vijay hoisted the national flag for India's 80th Independence Day. This is factually impossible as India is currently celebrating its 78th Independence Day (2024), and Vijay is a film actor, not the Chief Minister of Tamil Nadu.
