I just feel sad for those who paid tons for it. I know few people who did and some even paid more than 50k for it. And their period is still on going🤧🫤

Oh it gets way worse, apparently Byju's was locked out of many Tuition centres as they didn't pay their rent FOR MONTHS.
That means the parents who had already paid for offline tuition are now in line asking for refunds from a company that basically bankrupt.

The only silver lining from this entire fiasco is that people are now much more aware of the scams. Byjus materials were not necessarily bad but the way they pushed gullible poor families to buy their course using back breaking loans is something I'm definitely against even as a supporter of capitalism
