Seven Injured as Lift Falls from Second Floor in Indore Residential Building
Seven people, including six visitors from Punjab, were injured when an overloaded lift fell from the second floor of a six-storey residential building in Indore's Navlakha Complex. The incident occurred around 3:15 pm, with victims sustaining mainly leg injuries and receiving hospital treatment. Preliminary investigations cite overloading and poor maintenance as causes. The building and lift are decades old, and a similar lift collapse injured three people in the same complex earlier in April. Police are investigating the incident.
