**Headline:** Controversy Erupts in Jhansi as Woman Slaps Junior Engineer Over Electricity Meter Dispute
A video capturing a young woman slapping a Junior Engineer (JE) from the electricity department in Jhansi has gained significant attention on social media. The woman, identified as Sapna Tomar, is reportedly the granddaughter of the notorious Chambal dacoit Pan Singh Tomar, who transitioned from an athlete and soldier to a dacoit due to a family land dispute.
The incident occurred during a smart meter installation in Punjabi Colony, where Junior Engineer Vibhaav Kumar was addressing a reported issue. Upon arrival, Kumar discovered that the electricity connection was registered under the name of Mrs. Sharda Tomar. After obtaining permission, he proceeded to change the meter. It was at this moment that Sapna Tomar confronted him, allegedly engaging in aggressive behavior. Kumar stated, “We were recording the video. She broke the phone and then started slapping and pushing me. We have filed an FIR.”
In contrast, Sapna Tomar claims that the electricity team began changing the meter without prior notification and demanded a bribe of Rs 5,000. “When we refused, they started recording us. They had already misbehaved before. We told them there is no man at home; come after three days. Still, they cut off our electricity,” she asserted.
Tulsi Ram Pandey, the in-charge of Babina police station, confirmed that a case has been registered based on the engineer’s complaint. The charges against Sapna Tomar include Sections 121 (1), 132, 115 (2), 352, and 324 (4) of the BNS.
This incident highlights ongoing tensions surrounding utility services and the importance of communication between service providers and residents. As the situation develops, it raises questions about the protocols in place for meter installations and the handling of disputes.
