Power Failure Triggered the Dispute

According to the police, electricity went off at around 3 am, leaving residents without power. The society's generator backup system also failed to restore electricity, leading to frustration among several residents, according to a report by Times of India.

Police said society resident Jyoti Mishra and her friend Amit went to the maintenance office to complain about the disruption. An argument reportedly broke out between them and maintenance employee Kamal, with the situation quickly turning physical.

A video of the incident, which has spread widely on social media, shows Jyoti and Amit arguing with Kamal inside the maintenance office while other people watch.
