In a bizarre protest over poor mobile connectivity, villagers in Hardauli village of Uttar Pradesh’s Fatehpur allegedly tied a telecom company technician to a mobile tower on Thursday. The villagers were reportedly angry over persistent network problems despite a mobile tower being installed in the area.
A video of the incident has surfaced on social media, showing a man tied to the tower while several villagers stand around him. According to the person recording the video, residents had been facing poor mobile connectivity for nearly two years and took the extreme step after the tower worker arrived in the village.
Police said villagers had been complaining about network issues for a long time. Their frustration reportedly escalated when the technician visited the area. The incident has since drawn attention online, while further details about the circumstances and any action against those involved are awaited.
