Bajaj Finance is yet to respond to the allegations in the note.
A 42-year-old man, who was working as an area manager with Bajaj Finance, has died by suicide in Uttar Pradesh's Jhansi. Tarun Saxena has said in a note that his seniors at work had been pressuring him to meet his targets for the past two months and threatening him with salary deductions. Bajaj Finance is yet to respond to the allegations.
Tarun was found dead this morning by the house help. He had locked his wife and two children in another room. He is survived by his parents, wife Megha and children Yatharth and Pihu.
In a five-page letter addressed to his wife, Tarun wrote that he was under immense stress because he could not meet targets despite trying his best. Tarun was tasked with the collection of EMIs of Bajaj Finance loans from his area, but was falling short of targets due to several issues. He also said he was worried he may lose his job. He wrote that his seniors repeatedly humiliated him. "I am very tense about the future. I have lost my ability to think. I am going."
