Tension erupted during the installation of smart meters in Kunjakanta, Dhenkanal, as local residents and members of the Electricity Consumers Action Committee surrounded electricity department officials, including the Superintending Engineer and Junior Engineer (JE), and allegedly damaged smart meters and utility boxes mounted on electricity poles. The protesters claimed that the smart meters were being installed in shops and homes without prior notice, even though their existing electricity meters were functioning properly. The incident unfolded during the ongoing installation drive, leading to strong opposition from consumers over the alleged lack of prior intimation.
