Sub: Irregular clearance of garbage
Sir,
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 that 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,

Sub: Reckless driving of public vehicles in our locality
Respected Sir,
Through the columns of your esteemed daily, I like to express my view on the reckless driving in our locality. Reckless driving has become a major problem in our area. The young generation children and also some drunken people think that it is very cool to ride bikes and drive cars at full speed, but this has caused a huge problem. Several accidents have already took place because of this.
Therefore, I urge the concerned authority to take necessary steps to solve this problem as early as possible.
Thanking you,
Yours faithfully
