IITian earned big, saved nothing: Reddit post reveals how JEE topper's parents used 'love' to take every rupee
Synopsis A young Indian software professional shared his experience on Reddit about financial abuse by his parents. Despite earning a high salary after graduating from a top institute, his parents demanded a significant portion of his income under the guise of family duty and future investments, leaving him with no savings or financial independence. Representative image generated using AI On Reddit, stories of bad bosses and flatmate horror tales are common, but every now and then, a post comes along that truly stops people in their tracks. That's what happened when a young Indian software professional opened up about something rarely discussed in public: financial abuse within a heartfelt post, the techie described how his parents, under the pretext of love, care, and duty, stripped him of financial independence, one pay cheque at a time. Despite studying at one of India's top institutes and landing a high-paying job straight out of college, he said he was left with no savings, no investments, and no control over his own money. The reason? Parental pressure disguised as emotional to his Reddit post, the young man had a tough childhood in an emotionally abusive home, particularly due to his father's behaviour. Still, he worked hard, cleared the highly competitive JEE, and secured a seat at the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT). However, instead of supporting his education, his father allegedly made him take out an education loan of Rs 11 lakh, even though the family had enough didn't get better even when he started earning. During his final year, he landed a 10-month internship paying Rs 80,000 per month. But he claimed his father demanded the entire amount each month, saying it would be saved for a future home. Instead of using this money to repay his loan, the young student was left with nothing to call his graduation, he bagged a full-time role with a salary of Rs 1.5 lakh a month. But his financial freedom never came. His parents allegedly asked for Rs 1.1 lakh every month, again under the promise that it was going toward the family's future investments. In just over a year, he said he handed over nearly all his income, with no savings to show for it. When the job shifted to remote mode during the pandemic, he returned home, but this only led to more stress and a fallout with his parents. He moved out again after a months later, his parents informed him that they were buying a new flat. Though they avoided talking about money at first, the pressure soon returned. He said he had already given them over Rs 20 lakh for the down payment. When he delayed further contributions, emotional blackmail began. They reminded him of how they had 'sacrificed everything' to raise and educate him, even though he claimed his schooling from grades 9 to 12 cost less than Rs 2 lakh in total. His father, a government employee, reportedly earns around Rs 1 lakh per breaking point came when he visited home after more than a year. During a casual chat, his father asked how much he had in his bank account, and then requested another Rs 2 lakh for furniture. He even suggested that the son should allow his parents to 'manage' his finances going forward. That was the moment the young man decided to walk in his mid-20s, he has chosen to stop all financial support to his parents, saying they are fully capable of looking after themselves. His story has sparked conversations online about how love and duty are sometimes twisted into tools of control, especially within families where financial discussions are taboo.

Janani Bank scam: Prime accused arrested in Kovelakuntla
Kovelakuntla (Nandyal district): Kovelakuntla police have arrested Akula Venkataramana, the prime accused in Janani Mutual Aided Cooperative Society scam, which defrauded depositors of over Rs 1.5 crore. CI Hanumantha Naik confirmed that Venkataramana, a native of Somavandlapalle in YSR Kadapa district, was taken into custody and remanded to judicial custody, during a press conference here on Monday. He explained that four years ago, Venkataramana, along with Guvvala Padmavati and others, established Janani Society near Om Shanti Bhavan in Kovelakuntla. The society lured depositors from Kovelakuntla, Chagalamarri, Nandyal, and Banaganapalle with promises of high interest rates and easy loan access, surpassing private bank offerings. Investigations revealed that the society collected around Rs 1.5 crore in fixed and savings deposits, which Venkataramana diverted to his personal account. When depositors sought returns upon maturity, they found the society's premises closed and the management absconding. Police previously arrested co-accused Guvvala Padmavati, Akula Bharadwaj, and society chairperson Sujatha. Venkataramana's arrest marks a significant breakthrough in the ongoing investigation into the scam that exploited depositors' trust.
