The officials added that no formal complaint has been filed in connection with the incident, the report stated. They also clarified that the dog’s owner was authorised to bring the pet into the elevator, as the housing society permits residents to use the lift with their pets. In the short viral video, three girls can be seen standing casually in the lift when a woman enters the lift along with her pet dog.
