He had taken a loan from the Hyderabad-based Indian School Finance Company. Four months ago, company representatives visited the school and took his signature for a loan. Then on September 16, the company sent Vipin and Rangareddy to the school with the offer of a new loan.

When Tyagaraja declined the loan, they asked for three cheques. When he asked for a written communication, they attacked and abused him, according to the FIR.

Tyagaraja has brought the matter to the notice of the Associated Management of English Medium Schools in Karnataka.
