A woman and her three-year-old son had a terrifying experience when the lift they were in fell from the eighth floor to the basement in a residential building in Ghaziabad. The woman tried to open the door but was unsuccessful, and the alarms were not working. Eventually, the lift moved up on its own and stopped on the ground floor, allowing them to exit safely. The incident has raised concerns about the maintenance and safety of the lifts in the building.
