He said he was thinking of publishing the numbers in his daily Tamil Nesan "so that the individuals responsible for this cowardly act will get a taste of their own medicine".
According to Vell Paari, he had spoken to the whistleblower, Guneswari Kelly - the mother of a pupil at SK Seri Pristana primary school in Sungai Buloh.
"I have told her to forward me the numbers of those who threatened her and I will deal with them.
"Furthermore, I also told her that if her daughter continues to be harassed by the teachers, then I will go to the school and speak to the teachers myself, " he added.

Vell Paari expressed regret that such incidents of perceived discrimination were taking place in the school.
"It is sad... teachers are supposed to look after the pupils. The Education Ministry and the police must look into Guneswari's complaints," he said.
Guneswari, who uploaded photographs of non-Muslim pupils of SK Seri Pristana having their recess meals in the shower room, yesterday complained of receiving threatening phone calls.
The photographs posted on her Facebook - which have since been deactivated - ignited a firestorm of protests.
The Education Ministry and school authorities have denied that the issue was related to race or religion.
It was reported that the headmaster - who has since been ordered to go on leave - suggested the use of the shower room since the canteen was under renovation.
