उत्तर
Garbage Menace By Ramya/Rajan.
Through this article, I would like to bring to the notice of the authorities concerned, the unsanitary conditions of the streets. The service provided by the conservancy workers in our city is very poor. You can find all the street corners dumped with garbage thrown by the residents of the locality. It causes a menace for the public at large. The sweepers absent themselves and the streets stink, with heaps of garbage. The garbage collecting vehicle never comes on its regular round. We made a complaint to the authorities followed by a reminder in the last two weeks, but all in vain. With the onset of the rainy season, the situation has worsened due to the garbage choked streets. We, the students, are finding it difficult to go to our school. This is our humble request to the authorities to please pay attention to the cleanliness of Model Town and ensure regular cleaning. I shall be greatly obliged if you publish my article in your column so that it reaches the authorities concerned and steps are taken to solve the problem.
