The first think i'll like to tell you is that, your selection of fish is not right. betta in a cichlid tank won't survive for long.
secondly though the tank is pretty large but with 8 oscars and two parrots IMo its over stocked.
i'm not sure if oscars are compatible with parrots and my experience says they are not. look for external injuries on oscars probably they were beaten to death by the parrots.

@ Sushant - Betta has already been moved to the fish bowl. Out of 8 Oscars , I've alreay lost 4 of them. I have checked out the remaining they don't have injury marks or any such thing on them.
