A lineman was attacked with a sharp object by some people following a power cut during a pre-wedding function here, police said. A complaint has been filed in the matter.
According to the police, power supply to Aankhkheda village in Aaron police station area had been stopped on Monday due to some repair work.
Lakhan Singh Dhakad, who was having a pre-wedding function at his house, complained about it to the Electricity Department.
Some guests also joined Dhakad and soon an argument ensued between them and lineman Rambabu Mahaur. At one point, the group attacked Mahaur's palm with a sharp object.
Aaron Police Station in-charge B.S. Gaur told IANS: "Mahaur's palm has been wounded, but the injuries are not serious."
