It was Mayadhar Mohapatra who met with this tragic plight of not having paid the money for his job and then got tied to a tree to be given a garland of shoes. He lodged a complaint in this regard with the Khandapada police on Friday evening.
As per the complaint, Tapan Mohapatra-owner of Satyasai tutorial in Nayagarh’s Kantilo area- assaulted Mayadhar and then put a garland of shoes on him, after he stopped coming to his institution to teach. Mayadhar said he quit the institution as his salary was not paid “I was paid my salary of Rs 4,000 per month for the first four months, but the tutorial owner began defaulting after that. I joined another tutorial only after Tapan flatly refused to pay me for my work,” he added.
