In Noor Pur, Bijnor, Uttar Pradesh, Shubham Chauhan's family was preparing for a wedding procession on the evening of February 19 when the local electricity department abruptly cut off power from their home. According to Shubham, the electricity bill was fully paid, and their meter was functioning, making this sudden disconnection particularly frustrating. The unannounced power outage disrupted the wedding decorations and DJ music, thrusting the family into an embarrassing situation in front of their guests.

Shubham described that just as the final preparations for the wedding procession were underway, darkness suddenly enveloped their home. The lights, which had been specially arranged for the wedding, became pointless, leading to a significant inconvenience for the family and causing them to face ridicule from their relatives. Shubham felt deeply ashamed and claimed that he was not even given a day's notice before the power was cut, which only fueled rumors and gossip among the relatives.

The incident has prompted an internal review by the electricity department, as officials have ordered an inquiry into the actions of the line worker involved. The family's experience raises questions about the accountability and communication of public services, especially during critical community events like weddings, where timely service is paramount.
