Write a letter to the editor of a newspaper, complaining about the nuisance of garbage in your locality
Answers
Dear Sir,
My name is Vishwa Vinutna, a resident of Square villa colony. I am writing this letter to complain you about litter problem in our neighborhood.
The main problem is rubbish collecting van does not come regularly, because of this, the litter is heavily being deposited on the road. After, two days it produces bad smell that is harmful for us. Moreover, it attracts various insects and microorganisms. Sometimes, in windy atmosphere, garbage is dispersed on the entire lane, which makes the colony untidy.
This situation has worsened when one of my neighbors became sick because of awful atmosphere of colony. I am concerned about the safety of my family members and residents of colony. Hence, I believe this problem should be solved as early as possible.
To address this problem, I suppose that the rubbish should be collected daily or at least on alternate days to prevent the accumulation of waste. As a responsible environmental officer, you have to look into this issue and implement stern rules to avoid these kinds of problems.
I look forward to seeing a prompt action from you.
Yours sincerely,
Vishwa Vinutna

Subject: Impact of uncleaned garbage heaps
Sir:
I am writing to you to express my deep anguish over the problem of garbage heaps lying unmanaged and uncleaned for many days in our locality. The municipality’s apathy to timely clean these heaps is responsible for this.
Bangalore is the important metropolitan city and financial hub of India; lots of tourists from other states as well as foreign countries visit it. These heaps of garbage near residential colonies and near roads leave a bad impact on them. These garbage heaps are a source of noxious stink and spreading of so many diseases.
There is another problem of mismanagement of garbage. Quite frequently the garbage man collects garbage of the colony and burns it near the park. This burning causes lots of inconvenience to the people living near the park.
This garbage has lots of plastic and other dangerous substances in it. When these substances are burnt toxic gases such as nitrogen oxide, heavy metals, particulates, and dioxin are released into the atmosphere. These pose a serious threat to the health of residents, especially the children and the elderly. Through the columns of your esteemed daily I appeal to people and concerned authorities to look into the matter and take implement some stricter laws to speedy disposal of the garbage heaps. The municipality must introduce proper and scientific garbage management system. Looking forward to your cooperation in this regard.
Yours truly,
Samarth
