you did not post the picture of that pets. I guessed they may be aphids. They are common in tender soft plants. they are sucking insects, suck the sap from the soft part of the plant.
Use an pyrethrum insecticide or neem oil spray.

Not sure with the real issue with this. It seems it is angry by u. hehehe
I see the yellow and brown buring symptoms on the leaves and flowers are not fully bloom. They are sure by over watering and over fertilizing, I can see the veins are full and thick.
Did u transplant it recently??
But still not sure with the real problem.
Lets what other says.

U should not had to transplanted basanti. It is basanti's active growth period. Plants donot like its root disturbance in this period. overwatering symptoms are on leaves. Godi (hoeing) it and keep the plant in the shade for some days.
Do u see spider mites insect on the plant??

The plant is facing heat stress plus iron deficiency. Cut the dying blooms and lower rotting foliage, bring the plant in shade for the moment and give it some ferrous sulfate.
