The elevator had apparently got overloaded.
INDORE: Former Madhya Pradesh chief minister Kamal Nath and some of the most senior Congress leaders of the state had a close shave on Sunday when an elevator of a private hospital dropped from the ground floor to basement all of a sudden, apparently because it got overloaded.
Fortunately, no one was hurt. Without referring to the incident, Nath tweeted: “Lord Hanuman has always protected me. Jai Hanuman.”

Chief minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan expressed concern over the accident. “Heard that a lift carrying Kamal Nath ji and his party leaders fell at a private hospital in Indore. I spoke with him over phone. I’m thankful to God that they are all safe. I have asked Indore collector Manish Singh to have it investigated,” he tweeted. A magisterial probe has been ordered.
