Punjab Newsline, Chandigarh, February 16 -
Haryana’s cabinet minister Anil Vij inspected the newly installed high-speed lift in the 63-meter-high Memorial Tower of the Shaheed Smarak, being built in Ambala Cantonment in memory of the country's First War of Independence in 1857. The minister took the lift to the 12th floor and checked its functionality during the inspection.
As soon as the high-speed lift became operational, Vij reached the 12th floor from the ground in just 25 seconds. From the top, he admired the breathtaking view of Ambala Cantonment through the tower’s windows. This high-speed lift had recently been installed, and today he conducted its inspection.
Officials present at the site briefed the minister on the functionality of both lifts at the Memorial Tower. They explained that the tower has two high-speed lifts, which are significantly superior to regular lifts. Each lift has a capacity of 16 people and takes only 25 seconds to travel from the ground floor to the top 12th floor. Vij also reviewed the security and other arrangements inside the Memorial Tower.
