Two employees of the Uttar Pradesh electricity department were electrocuted while trying to fix a power connection in Kheragarh village in Agra district today, police said.
Following their death, angry villagers blocked a road alleging that neither the police arrived nor the ambulance service was available despite several phone calls made to them.
A roadways bus was damaged by the villagers, police said.
The sub-divisional magistrate also visited the scene to pacify the villagers. Later legislator Mahesh Goyal assured the villagers that action would be taken against people who started the power supply when the two were working to fix the connection.
