After the incident, the Congress MLA from Khradi constituency of the district Laxmi Devi and others along with the body protested in front of the collector's office and demanded action against the lineman and sub-engineer of the MP State Electricity Board (MPSEB) for the death.

The collector assured the protesters that action will be taken against the MPSEB staffers after they submitted a memorandum to him.

In the evening, the MPSEB suspended its area lineman and issued show cause to the concerned sub engineer.
