A tragic news coming in from Thane district of Maharashtra. Six workers have lost their lives after an elevator plunged from the 40-storey under construction building. Five workers died instantly due to the impact while another succumbed to his injuries. The other worker is admitted into a private hospital after sustaining serious injuries.
The accident occurred around 5:30 pm today, during the workers' descent from the 40-storey structure after completing waterproofing work on the terrace. The eyewitnesses immediately alerted the local fire department and police station about the incident.
Tadavi further said, “The rope of the elevator broke on the 16th floor when the workers were descending, leading to the lift crashing into the basement of the underground parking lot.” According to reports, it appears to Tadvi that one of the supporting cables of the construction lift snapped, leading to the incident.
According to Regional Disaster Management Cell (RDMC) officials, the building was completed and the waterproofing work was under way on the roof. The accident happened when the workers, after completing the waterproofing, were coming down in the elevator.
Police officials said that the initial inquiry has been completed and an accidental death report (ADR) filed in the matter. The bodies of the deceased have been sent for a post-mortem. The families of the deceased have been informed, but they are yet to reach. According to a preliminary probe, it has been revealed that there was negligence. Further the police said that investigations are on, and those responsible would be booked.
In a statement by Dhruva Woollen Mills Pvt Ltd, the project promoter and part of the Runwal Group, said that the elevator had been under continuous surveillance and was serviced under an existing annual maintenance contract and the last proactive maintenance was done on August 23 where the due oiling, lift room check-up, brake settings, car liner checking and up-on limit switch checking was satisfactorily done by the vendor and the assessment report stated the good condition of the lift.
