As per staff at the hospital, the malfunctioning of the lift, like the incident that occurred on Monday, happens quite often as the gears and pulleys of the mechanical lift are quite old. The new age lifts work automatically. Due to mechanical malfunction often staff or sometimes patients have to wait for technicians to reach the spot and bail them out. The attendant had to wait for almost an hour before a team from the Electrical Department reached the hospital and brought down the lift.
