BYJU'S Co-founder Divya Gokulnath has responded to reports claiming that the edtech startup owes ₹86.21 crore as dues to the BCCI. Calling it a "fake news story", Gokulnath said, "We expect at least...real journalists to...not get swayed by hearsay and concocted stories by vested parties." Earlier, BYJU'S denied the reports and said, "There are no dues pending from our side."
