He also reported being subjected to abusive language by his superiors and threatened with termination.
Tarun, a resident of Jhansi, an employee was responsible for loan recovery. Many farmers who had taken loans were unable to repay them due to significant crop losses caused by flooding, which made it difficult for Tarun to meet his targets.
