Indian Army — Fraud of Rs 42000

Hello, My name is Somok Mukherjee. My father (Soumitra Mukherjee) is a retired bank officer and a part time teacher who teaches students for government examinations. Today 13th June 2022 at 12.03 pm my father got a call from an unknown number ([protected]) and he claimed to be Major Srikanth Verma who is from Indian Army, and then he Whatsapp that his children wants to take admission for coaching in my father's institution, the package was (16000 + 16000) Rs = 32000 Rs for a year for two children as informed by my father, he agreed to it and then asked for the payment mode and my father requested to pay via online i.e. Google Pay or Phone Pe, his numbers weren't avaiable in Gpay so my father requested to send the money to my number i.e myself.
According to this Major, the money will be send via some Indian Army Fund or something that I didnt knew clearly but he told that I will get a call from another person who will send me the money once the number is confirmed according to their policy. Now, I got a call from this number ([protected]), another army man who claims to verify my number via Gpay and then will send the money, now he requested to check my account that I will receive the money once I provide the UPI ID, unknowing the fact the money will be debited I mistakenly gave my UPI ID when a popup came of Rs 32000 well I thought it was them who are going to pay me but it got debited unfortunately, in my account I had 42516 Rs. Intitally 32000 Rs was debited then rest 10000 Rs was debited later.
I feel this is a case of scam because now when I am trying to reach both of the numbers but they are rejecting it..

Please help me out, I am attaching all the screenshots for the purpose of evidence.
Thank You,
Somok Mukherjee
