The alarming episode began around 2 PM when Thakur, visibly intoxicated, started scaling the mobile tower. Within minutes, he reached a considerable height, drawing the attention of bystanders and passersby. A large crowd gathered below, anxiously watching the reckless act unfold. Fearing the worst, eyewitnesses immediately alerted local authorities, prompting a rapid response from the police and Municipal Corporation.

ASI Rajendra Yadav from Jahangirabad Police Station confirmed that the rescue teams acted swiftly to prevent any mishap. By 2:40 PM, after careful negotiation and strategic planning, authorities successfully persuaded Thakur to descend safely. He was then taken into police custody for questioning.
Investigation is underway to determine motive
Following his bizarre stunt, the police are investigating the motives behind Thakur’s actions. His severe intoxication has raised concerns about his mental state, prompting authorities to delve deeper into the circumstances that led to the reckless act. Officials suggest that further legal action may be taken based on the findings of the ongoing inquiry.
Similar incident in Noida raises concerns
This incident bears a striking resemblance to a case in Noida’s Sector 113, where another allegedly intoxicated man climbed a high-voltage electric tower. The individual danced on the pole, triggering an emergency response from police and fire services. After two hours of intense negotiations, he was eventually rescued unharmed. Authorities suspected mental instability, though his intoxication status remains unconfirmed.
Authorities urge caution and awareness
In light of these disturbing events, officials urge citizens to exercise caution and report such incidents immediately. The police also stress the importance of addressing mental health and substance abuse issues to prevent potentially fatal consequences.
