Dear Mr Raghav Shinde,

Subject: Request letter to send garbage trucks.

I live in Ghatkopar West area, For the past 1 year I have been complaining about the filthy roads of this area but every time my efforts goes down the drain as the concerned department fails to take any action. The garbage trucks have become an out of the ordinary thing in this area as they seldom arrive.

The situation is getting worse day by day as now not only the beauty of the landscape but the health of the residents is getting affected. The mound of garbage serves as a breeder of mosquitoes. The foul smell filled in the air around is solely responsible for a headache and nausea reported by the residents. People living on the ground floor are majorly affected as the heaps of garbage lie just outside their kitchens or living areas because of which children and aged people find it hard to breathe.

The best one can do in this regard is making the garbage trucks more frequent in this area from thrice a month to all days in a week. It will take time for this area to go back to what it was therefore, I would request the authorities to take an intense and long-lasting step for the upliftment of this area.

I request you, sir, to kindly do the needful and make up for the long period of not doing anything before it is too late.

Yours Faithfully,

Ms Aneri Singh
