I would like to tell me if there are any grammar mistakes or wrong connotations in the letter which is to an Editor of a newspaper.



Subject: Garbage Menace



Sir

I would like to bring to your attention the problem people face due to inefficiency of the authorities in clearing the garbage.

It is indeed a serious problem when people suffer due to unbearable stench from the garbage, which has got accumulated in course of weeks together.



When the garbage remains uncollected even for two to three days it turns toxic and causes severe harm to the people living around. As people inhale the air which is polluted due to the stench emanating from long accumulated garbage, they get affected by serious health problems. Besides the stench, which people find very hard to put up with, the place turns out to be an apt breeding ground for mosquitoes. During rainy season the situation turns worse as the rain water flows through streets carrying the filth and other foul substances from the garbage piled up at the corner of the streets. This turns the locality absolutely unhygienic and unpleasant to live in.



The authorities in-charge of monitoring the effective and timely clearing of garbage, are very often not serious with their duties and as a result the workers responsible for clearing the garbage on the roadsides do not report to work on daily basis.



I would like you to publish this letter in the ‘Letters to Editor’ column. I hope the authorties concerned will take immediate steps to eradicate this problem.



Thank you



Yours faithfully
