Tragic accident in Etah: Mason dies due to electrocution while working on an under-construction house

In a tragic incident in Etah, Uttar Pradesh, a mason died after coming into contact with an 11,000-volt high-tension power line. The victim was working on an under-construction building at the time. Family members have alleged that the work was carried out without shutting off the power supply, which led to the fatal accident.

A heartbreaking incident has come to light in the Etah district of Uttar Pradesh, where a mason lost his life. The accident occurred while he was busy with construction work at an under-construction house. During the work, he suddenly came into contact with an 11,000-volt high-tension power line.

According to eyewitnesses, the electric shock was so intense that the mason did not get a chance to recover. Chaos ensued immediately after the incident, and local residents tried to save him, but it was already too late.

There is deep resentment among the family members of the deceased following this incident. They have accused the electricity department of gross negligence. The family states that the situation was created where work had to be done without shutting off the power supply, which led to this fatal accident.

Family members claim that if the electricity department had exercised caution in time and interrupted the power supply, this tragedy could have been avoided. They have demanded action against the responsible officials in this matter.

Upon receiving information about the incident, the local police reached the spot, took possession of the body, and sent it for a post-mortem. The police have initiated an investigation to clarify whether safety standards were followed or not.

Failure to follow safety protocols during construction work often leads to such accidents. In this case as well, questions are being raised about safety claims, especially since the work was being carried out near a high-tension line.

Local administration has offered condolences to the victim's family and assured a fair investigation into the matter. Currently, there is an atmosphere of mourning in the area, and people are concerned about safety arrangements at construction sites.
