The family members poured kerosene on themselves outside the Vidhan Soudha, but were stopped by the cops. They were then taken into custody.

Videos showed the cops dragging them into police vehicles.

The family had borrowed ₹ 50 lakh from the Bangalore City Cooperative Bank in 2016. The family could repay only ₹ 95 lakh and not the full dues including the interest and other components.

The bank then moved to auction their house to recover their dues, prompting the family to take the extreme step.
