A serious accident was narrowly averted at Metro Tower on Collectorate Road in Gwalior late Sunday night when a lift malfunctioned and fell from the third floor, injuring five people. According to residents, the lift had a history of technical issues that had been reported multiple times but were left unaddressed.

Residents had reportedly lodged several complaints with the building’s society management about the faulty lifts, but no action had been taken.
