Sub: Irregular clearance of garbage.
Sir/ Madam,
Through your esteemed daily, I would like to express my concern about irregular clearance of garbage in my locality that has made the lives of the people living here unbearable. The environment of the locality has become unhygienic. The garbage bins and the pavements are overflowing with heaps of waste. The uncollected garbage is left to rot and the air is filled with foul smell. This is also creating health hazards. The locality has become a breeding ground of mosquitoes and flies the spread diseases like cholera and malaria. Some residents suffering from such diseases have already been hospitalized. If measures are not immediately taken for regular removal of garbage in the area, then the spread of diseases might rise to alarming proportions.
I would therefore, on behalf of the residents of the locality, request the authorities to arrange for regular disposal of garbage.
Thanking you.
Yours sincerely,
Ranjan Ghosh
