Sir

Sub: Plight of press apartments

Through the columns of your esteemed newspaper, I wish to bring to your kind notice as well as that of the authorities concerned to the plight of the residents of Press Apartments.

The colony has three open manholes which have been a source of fear and anxiety to the residents. In fact two little children—aged seven and nine belonging to the nearby slums—have already lost their lives.Moreover since these open manholes lie on the main road leading to the colony, it becomes difficult for the commuters to use the road after darkness prevails, especially in winters. Women and children are the worst affected. They do not venture to move out as soon as it gets dark.

It is earnestly hoped that the authorities competent to redress our grievances will pay attention to our plight and get the manholes covered and also provide street lights to this neglected colony.

Yours truly

Reshma
