Sub: Poor Drainage in rainy season.
Sir
I write to you to express my concern over the issue of poor drainage in the city during the rainy season, which causes much inconvenience to the residents. This rainy season our city had copious rainfall. The entire state was flooded. Our city was no exception. You will be shocked to know even after almost a month of the rainfall, the rainwater has not been drained. The simple reason behind this flooding of the city roads is poor drainage system. The high areas are clear and clean. The rain water has been drained from there. The problem is with the low areas, where the drainage system has been faulty. The PWD department’s inefficiency has been exposed.
The stagnated water has been causing serious health issues. Malaria, dengue, chikanguniya, apart from stink and travelling problems have made the life of Shastri Nagar residents literal hell. The state government’s apathy to the ongoing problems is outrageously shocking. Through the columns of your esteemed daily, I appeal to the concerned central government ministry to look into the matter and expedite the relief measures for the affected residents. I am hopeful you will give suitable place to my letter in your esteemed daily.
Yours truly,

Sir,
Subject: Artificial flood in the area.
I am writing this letter in order to grab your attention to the issue of the artificial flood in our region. Moreover, last week, the west-side wall of the Daman barrage broke because of the high pressure of water caused by the increased flow of river Ganges in our area. This incident has caused a flood in mostly all areas around the embankment. The residents are not able to communicate from one place to other because of which a loss in economic growth has struck the region. Also, the stagnant water has become a breeding place for multiple harmful species of organisms such as Ades mosquitoes, fungi, flies, etc. Several appeals have been made to authorities to provide some solution or relief to the residents but no action has been made.
Anyhow, it will help us greatly if the issue is raised through your famous daily. The lower middle class has nearly lost their homes and are very much distressed. Therefore, I request you to approach the government by publishing an article in your prominent newspaper. I hope my appeal would be responded.
Thank you.
Yours faithfully,
Abhigyan Sharma
