Subject: Garbage recycling station is closed. The environment is getting polluted.
Sir,
You have always been helpful and solved all problems in society so that we can live peacefully. So, today I’m writing to you again with a similar problem regarding the waste management system in our locality. There is a waste recycling station near my house, which is closed for almost one and a half months now. So, garbage is loading up each day making the space narrower and the air dirty with an unpleasant smell. It’s getting tough day by day to breathe fresh in this suffocating environment. Apart from that, it’s getting very unhygienic also for us to live in this locality. We cannot open the windows and doors for a while to avoid the smell at any cost.
I would like to request you to please focus on this problem and help us with a strict and immediate solution.
Thank You.
Yours Sincerely,
Suhana Roy

Subject: Inappropriate management of garbage segregation.
Sir,
You have always been concerned about any kind of societal problem and raised your voice with your writing to help society have a solution for them. So, today again, I have decided to write to you about the garbage segregation problem in my locality with the hope of a solution. People in our locality are not well aware of the garbage segregation process.
We have to keep them dry and wet waste separately to manage it in the right way. But they load up all of their waste in one place and then put it all together in the garbage station. As a result, the surface of the road gets wet, damaged and has an unpleasant odour. It has been tough for us to walk on that part of the road.
I shall be really obliged if you can look into this matter and write in your newspaper about this to educate people about the waste segregation process.
Thank You
Yours Sincerely,
Malini Dutt

Subject: Garbage pieces are getting scattered by stray dogs.
Sir,
I’m writing to you about a serious problem in our locality which has almost made our life miserable. Stray dogs are gathering near the garbage station in our locality every night and scatter the waste pieces on the entire road. As a result, not only the road is getting dirty and inaccessible, but it also has almost been impossible to breathe fresh in our area due to the intolerable odour.
Apart from that, nobody is there to look into this matter and solve this problem. We have tried to contact the Corporation Office asking for a solution, but we didn’t get any positive answer. The road has almost been inaccessible and this problem is getting repeated every night.
I would like to request you to please look into this matter and help us with an immediate and permanent solution.
Thank You
Yours Sincerely,

Subject: Garbage station is overflowing with waste.
Sir
Whenever we face any problem, we have written to you for a solution and you always have been there to help us. So, I hope, today also you will be there for us to help find a solution to this problem that I’m going to mention. The garbage station in our locality is overflowing and it has been 2 weeks that nobody has been sent from the corporation to clean this up. The waste level is increasing each day making it impossible for us to live in the area. The air is filled with an unpleasant odour, the road near the garbage station is almost inaccessible, and there is no place nearby to put all the waste together for disposal.
We all will be very grateful to you if you can focus on this problem and help us with a quick solution. Looking forward to hearing from you soon.
Thank You
Yours Sincerely,
Anasuya Sircar
