Sir,
A large number of stray animals keep roaming on the busy Patel Road all hours of the day. Many a lee time, they cause traffic jams as well as accidents. Some of these animals are cows and buffaloes that have gone dry. Their owners let them loose on the road without caring for the inconvenience caused to the road users. Besides, it gives a very ugly look to the whole area. The entire place remains littered with the excrement of these animals. All such stray animals should be impounded and sent to the Municipal pen. They should be returned only after their owners have paid a heavy penalty. Such requests have been made time and again to the concerned authorities, but no action has been taken so far. Hopefully, this letter will meet the eyes of our worthy officials, and
steps will be taken to end this problem of stray animals.
Yours truly
Shantha
