Largest BHU recruitment photo under 50 KB
The BHU recruitment source gives a file-size limit but no pixel size for the photo. Measured on a public-domain portrait, a 7:9 (35 × 45 mm shape) JPG at quality 85 stays under 50 KB up to about 461 × 592 px (48.7 KB), so any common camera photo has to be scaled down before it fits.
