Subject: Difficulties
due to water logging in our locality
Respected Sir,
Through the columns of your esteemed daily I, a resident of Deganga,
would like to draw the attention of the authorities concerned to the untold
sufferings of the people of our locality because of water-logging in the rainy
season.
In absence of any modern drainage system even a short spell
of shower is enough to cause water logging in the area. As most of the drains
are clogged with plastics, drains easily overflow and remain stagnant for days.
Mosquitoes find a happy breeding-ground in the stagnant water and diseases like
Malaria and Dengue are so very common. Residents have to live in an unhygienic
condition during the entire rainy season. The school-going children and
office-goers have to wade through knee-deep water and passing vehicles often splash
dirty water upon the pedestrians. Repeated appeals to the B.D.O. have fallen to
the deaf ears.
Therefore, the government should take some measures to
alleviate the suffering of the people of our locality.
Thanking you.
Yours faithfully,
XYZ
