Respected Sir,
The reason for writing the letter to you is that there is irregular clearance of garbage in our
locality due to which people suffering from the diseases like malaria, Dengue and typhoid. If
we want a disease free life in our area, we have to dispose of that waste every day. The
citizens of the area have to suffer a lot as even our Municipal Corporation is ignoring this
issue.
Also the garbage hips smell foul everyday. The people passing from the roads have to face
it. The street dogs, cows and other animals eat the spoiled food along with the plastics. The
street animals will be in danger due to that. I hereby request the municipal corporation to
understand our problem and pay attention to this serious issue. I would be happy if you
published this issue in your newspaper, so that everyone will notice it and take action on it.
Thanking you,

Sub :- Irregular Clearance of Garbage

Sir,
I shall be highly obliged to you if you kindly allow me a little space in your esteemed
daily to express my concern over the irregular clearance of garbage in our locality.

I convey my displeasure through your esteemed daily caused by the irregular clearance
of garbage in our locality. Irregular clearance of garbage of _________ (name of the
municipality) municipal area has made our life miserable. Garbage is not removed
regularly in our area. As a result, it is piled up and scattered on roads badly. The
uncollected garbage stinks and the foul smell fills the air. The rotten garbage is a breeding
ground of mosquitoes and flies. When they are all around, diseases are not far behind. A
few cases of cholera and malaria have already been reported in the local media. Our
appeals to the municipality were in vain.

I hope this will draw the prompt attention of the concerned authorities through your
daily to arrange for the regular clearance of garbage in our locality.

Thanking you,

Yours faithfully,
