Businessman Nikhil Nanda and several officials are implicated in a case of fraud and abetment to suicide in Badaun, linked to the distress of a dealership owner who committed suicide.

- Dinesh Pant (UP Head)
- Pankaj Bhaskar (Financier Collection Officer)
- Amit Pant (Sales Manager)
- Neeraj Mehra (Sales Head)

According to Gyanendra, his brother Jitendra frequently expressed distress over the harassment he faced from the company officials. He alleged that on November 21, a group of officials visited the dealership again to pressurize Jitendra. Unable to cope with the ongoing stress, Jitendra died by suicide on November 22.
