Subject: Shortage of water
Sir:
I write to you to express my concern and helplessness thinking you might assist me in waking up the sleeping municipal corporation authorities! Our locality has been facing severe scarcity of water. The problem is quite complex. Our locality has not been receiving normal water supply for many weeks. It is owing to the ever increasing pressure of new colonies mushrooming in the outskirts. The water supply is being given to these new colonies by attaching them to the few water supply facilities. As a result the water does not come in taps.
We requested the Municipal Commissioner to provide a new water facility in our locality but to no avail. The municipal authorities have quite an apathetic attitude towards providing public amenities to people. People have been facing severe water scarcity for many months now. Through the columns of your reputed daily I wish to draw the attention of the concerned Ministry and local authorities towards the severity of our plight. I also appeal to people to use water sagaciously. I hope you will assist me in this cause by publishing my letter in your newspaper. Thanking you.
Yours truly,
Kamal Nath

Subject: Low quantity and irregular supply of water
Respected Sir,
Through the columns of your esteemed daily newspaper, I woul like to highlight the problem of water scarcity in this locality. For the last three weeks our locality is receiving very low quantity of water which is not enough for our daily basic use. To make the scarcity of water worse, the supply is very irregular and not given in scheduled time. The people here are being compelled to buy water at extremely high rates.
Therefore, I earnestly request the power department and the authorities to look into the matter and restore regular supply of water immediately since the people of this locality are facing so much hardship.
I will remain ever thankful to you for your kind and early action.
Thanking you,
Yours sincerely,
