Subject: Unattended garbage is creating problems on the streets
Sir,
I am a resident of the Nabinpally area from ward number 12. Today I’m writing this letter to bring under your kind concern that we’re facing severe problem due to scattered unattended garbage in our locality.
We have around 3 garbage bins in our area. As around 200 families live in this ward, the number of garbage bins are quite insufficient in the first place. We have previously requested the KMC to install at least 10 more garbage bins in our area. But our request got no response. Moreover, since the last few months, regular cleaning of those garbage bins have been stopped. As a result, the adjacent streets stay full of garbages scattered here and there. We have to face and dodge them while walking down the streets. Recently, I accidentally slipped and fell down on the street due to those scattered garbages.
So, it’s my earnest request to you to clean the garbage bins regularly and ensure us a healthy life.
Yours Sincerely,
Rajesh Dutta

Subject: Unattended garbage can cause major diseases
Sir,
This letter to you is intended to draw your kind attention to the issue of unattended garbage in our locality.
For the last 15 days, garbage bins have been cleared even once in our area. We have approached multiple times to the municipal corporation but unfortunately, we didn’t get any positive response regarding it. Now those garbages are been scattered here and here on the road and the stay animals are playing all over them. Our loving city has recently been hit by many seasonal diseases. If unattended garbages stays scattered like this, chances are our locality can be hit by such major diseases as well. Moreover, the streets full of garbages have made our lifestyle hell. Bad smells from that garbage reach our houses too.
So, through this letter, I would like to request you to kindly take the necessary steps to clean those garbages immediately and make sure that we don’t have to face such a situation anymore in the future.
Yours Sincerely,
Rumi Bannerjee

Subject: Foul smells from unattended garbages are interrupting school life
Sir,
I am a student of class 10 from Uttarpara boys’ high school. Today I am writing this letter to you to highlight the issue of unattended garbage in the adjacent area of our school and how it is interrupting our school life.
We have a large raw materials’ marketplace in the adjacent area of our school. Due to heavy crowds, the market usually stays very dirty and full of garbages. Recently during the last few weeks, foul smells from those garbages are entering our school even our classroom. We are feeling quite irritated due to this issue and many of the students are not attending their classes. After enquiry, we got to know that the smell is coming due to unattended garbages in the market area.
So, I would like to request you earnestly, please take some immediate steps to clean those garbages and help us to restore our normal school life.
Yours Sincerely,
Aditya Bansal

Ward no. 14

The Commissioner
Panihati Municipality
Kolkata: 700110
Subject: Unattended garbages creating tremendous problems
Sir,
I am a resident of Ghola, from ward no. 14 writing this letter to you today as we are facing tremendous problems in our locality due to unattended garbages.
Garbage cleaning in our locality is very much infrequent and due to that all the garbage bins always stay full around this area. In the last two weeks, our garbage bins have not been cleared even once. We have tried to call the municipality in this regard, but nobody responded to our phone call. As currently the monsoon season is going and the garbage bins are overflowing, all the scattered garbages are going inside the drains and blocking the waterways. This is resulting in major rainwater stagnation in our area. Even with the stagnant water some of those garbages are entering our houses.
Hopefully, you have understood that we are living in quite an unhealthy environment. It’s my earnest request to you to take steps whatever is required to save us from this crisis.
Yours Sincerely,
Barun Goswami
