Leader of Opposition and senior NCP leader Ajit Pawar had a narrow escape when the lift of a hospital building plummeted down from the fourth floor after a power failure on Saturday.
The incident took place at a hospital in Pune city. Ajit Pawar spoke about the incident at an event in Baramati on Sunday.
Pawar said he was with three others including 90-year-old surgeon Sharad Hardikar when the incident took place.
Speaking at the public event in Baramati, Pawar said, “Yesterday I did not utter a word about this incident. I told others too now to talk about it, otherwise it would have become ‘breaking news’. I went home and did not say anything to (wife) Sunetra or my mother.
