Gurgaon Man’s ‘Lift Victory’ Turns Sour, Leading to Unexpected Regrets

A recent viral post on Reddit detailed a Gurgaon man’s frustrating experience after successfully advocating for maids and delivery personnel to use the main resident lift in his society. Initially hailed as a champion of equality, his victory quickly soured as the lift’s condition deteriorated significantly within a week. He reported that the lift began to permanently smell unpleasant, featured unsanitary installations, and showed signs of neglect, such as discarded pan masala sachets near the buttons. The man expressed regret over his triumph, contemplating asking the Resident Welfare Association (RWA) to reinstate their original policy. Social media users offered mixed reactions, with some commending his idealism while others advised a more data-driven approach to such community decisions. Some pointed out that civic sense and class are separate issues, and that winning one battle doesn’t guarantee success in the other.
