Abhay Kumar, a Junior Engineer in the electricity department of Prayagraj, Uttar Pradesh, India, climbed a nearly 40-foot mobile tower on Thursday to protest his suspension following a fatal accident involving a lineman. The incident occurred while Kumar was addressing a malfunction of the 11KV Chhibaiya feeder. After working late to restore power, a lineman, who was not an employee, was called for assistance and suffered a fatal accident while working on the pole. Kumar claims he was unfairly suspended and demands an investigation into the incident, stating, “Any employee in the department who is at fault should definitely be punished.” He emphasizes the need for due process, arguing that suspensions should only occur in serious cases where an employee might influence the investigation. Kumar is prepared to accept punishment if found guilty but insists that an investigation must precede any disciplinary action.
