Respected sir\madam,
(sub: Requesting some steps to be taken to avoid water crisis.)
I am (name). I am handling this (job). Our city (city name), is devouring with water crisis. I have an idea to avoid water crisis in our city. Please take some steps to avoid water crisis. Let us save every drop of water by beginning recycling of water, by starting rain water harvesting, by preventing wastage in households and industries, by building storage tanks in fields and by avoiding water wastage during cropping. I am not saying to stop agriculture but we can use drip irrigation method to avoid water wastage. But it is a costly thing. I am expecting these many things from you apart from costly, impossible. Please do these works in our city or take some steps if you have another idea. This is my simple request.
Thanking you,
yours faithfully,
(name).
