CRPF personnel were then called who broke the lift and pulled Shah and others out. Shah was pulled out only after 20 minutes, some reports said.

Shah was in Bihar for a day to campaign for the party for the upcoming assembly elections.

The Nitish Kumar government however said that the incident took place due to overloading.
