Emergency responders carry out an operation to free him. NDTV and other outlets say rescue teams break open part of the lift structure, while fire personnel use equipment such as a hydraulic cutter to cut and access the trapped space. Times of India describes responders from HYDRAA and the local fire station working for over 90 minutes.
After the extrication, the man receives medical attention. Times of India reports he is taken to a nearby hospital for urgent care. The accounts are broadly consistent on the location in Hyderabad, the duration of the rescue effort, and the need to cut and dismantle parts of the lift to reach him, though outlet phrasing varies on exact details of how the elevator behaves and how he is positioned.
