As per the report, police said that the altercation began when frustrated residents, dealing with two to three hours of no electricity, decided to confront the maintenance team. The situation escalated when staff members allegedly refused to respond or explain the delay, leading to a heated argument that soon took a violent turn and spiraled into a physical assault.

One of the residents who was attacked recalled the ordeal, saying that there was no electricity for two to three hours and he decided to go down to them when they stopped answering calls.

"When we went there, some other residents were already trying to get answers. As we were talking, some members of the maintenance staff began punching us. One man held my collar as other people hit me with sticks. I was also slapped...my entire body is swollen. My children were crying in the corner," he said.

Following the attack, police arrested four individuals from the maintenance department. They have been identified as Ravindra, Sohit, Sachin Kuntal, and Vipin Kasana.

DCP Central Noida, Shakti Mohan Awasthi, confirmed the arrests and said: "Upon receiving the information, we reached the spot and registered a case, and arrested the accused on the charges of assaulting the society residents."
