GREATER NOIDA, India, August 2, 2024 – A recent lift malfunction at Shivalik Homes Society has raised new worries about lift safety in Noida and Greater Noida. The Noida Lift Accident, which left a delivery man stuck, has led residents to ask for quick action from officials.
Delivery Man’s Scary Experience Highlights Ongoing Lift Dangers
On August 1, 2024, around 2:00 PM, a delivery man got trapped in a broken lift at Shivalik Homes Society in Greater Noida. He was stuck on the seventh floor for 17 minutes before the maintenance team rescued him. This event shows the urgent need for better lift safety in local apartment buildings.
Shivalik Homes: Example of Noida’s Lift Problems
Arvind Kushwaha, who has lived at Shivalik Homes for eight years, is very worried about how often the lifts break down. The complex has four towers, each with two lifts. Residents say people, even children, get stuck in lifts almost every day.
“These lift problems aren’t just annoying, they’re dangerous,” Kushwaha said. “We need help now to make things safe.”
Officials’ Lack of Action Upsets Residents
Despite many complaints to the Uttar Pradesh State Industrial Development Authority (UPSIDA), residents say nothing real has been done to fix the frequent lift breakdowns. This lack of response has made people scared and frustrated.
Residents Call for Government Help and New Lift Laws
The ongoing lift issues at Shivalik Homes point to a bigger problem in Noida and Greater Noida. People living there and safety experts want strict rules and a new Lift Act to prevent future problems and keep people safe.
Noida’s Fast Growth Creates Lift Safety Challenges
The lift accident at Shivalik Homes shows how hard it is for fast-growing areas to keep up with safety needs. As Noida and Greater Noida expand, they need better safety rules and regular lift checks.
Children’s Safety: A Top Worry in Lift Incidents
One of the scariest things is how often children get stuck in broken lifts. Reports of a 7-year-old trapped in a lift have made parents very worried. This shows the urgent need for better safety measures to protect kids.
Better Emergency Response and Maintenance Needed
The recent incident shows how important quick response teams and good maintenance are. While the delivery man could use his phone to call for help, many worry about what happens if someone can’t make a call during an emergency.
Residents Work Together for Change
People from Shivalik Homes Society and nearby areas are joining forces to fight for their safety. They’re telling others about the frequent lift problems and asking local officials to act now.
Making Safety the Top Priority
