Subject: Urgent Need for Street Lights
Respected Sir
Through the columns of your esteemed newspaper, I wish to draw the attention of
the authorities concerned regarding the serious hazard faced by the residents of
Kanishka Co-operative Group, Indira Nagar. There are no streetlights on the main
road leading to the colony.
The absence of streetlights poses a significant threat to the safety and security of
the residents, especially during the evening and night hours. Pedestrians, cyclists,
and motorists navigating through the poorly lit roads face numerous hazards and
risks, including accidents, thefts, and assaults. Moreover, the dark surroundings
create an environment conducive to criminal activities, making our neighborhood
vulnerable to antisocial elements. Residents, particularly women, elderly
individuals, and children, feel apprehensive while commuting or returning home
after dark due to the lack of visibility and security measures. Despite several
complaints and appeals to the concerned authorities, no concrete steps have been
taken to address this pressing issue. We urge the municipal corporation and local
representatives to prioritize the installation of streetlights along the main road
leading to Indira Nagar, which not only enhances the safety of residents but also
contributes to the overall development and well-being of the community.
I shall be thankful if you could provide a relevant space in your prestigious
newspaper. I hope this letter would help open the eyes of the authorities and they
would swing into action at the earliest.
Yours truly
Sign
Akanksha
