Villagers in Khargone are furious due to power cuts, leading to road blockades. The road on Indore Road was closed for 4 hours, resulting in a 5 km long traffic jam. It was opened after assurances from officials.

In Khargone, 300 people, distressed by power cuts in the Balasamud area, took to the streets on Monday night. They blocked the bus stand for four and a half hours, causing a 5-kilometer-long traffic jam on the Khargone-Indore road. People accused the electricity company of discrimination. On October 9th, junior engineer Rishabh Kumar had given a written assurance that power cuts would not be implemented during Navratri from 5 pm to 12 am, but the department turned off the power by 8 pm.
