To,

The Editor

The Statesman,

Chowringhee Square

Kanpur-204478

Subject -Bad condition of drains in Ward No.17

Sir,

Please allow me a column in your esteemed and well-circulated daily to express my grievance against the deplorable condition of the drains in Ward No.17 of Kanpur.

The condition of drains in our locality is so deplorable. As most of the drains have not been repaired for a long time and are full of dirt, waste tea cups, carry bags and rubbish, they are not in a condition to release huge wastewater from our locality. As most of the drains are in stagnant condition, the nuisance of flies and mosquitoes is on the rise day by day. The foul smell spreading from the drains causes an unhealthy atmosphere. Above all, the problem of waterlogging during heavy downpours is a common event in our locality. Now the people of our Ward are not at ease because of this poor drainage system. Though the authorities have been informed of the problem, they remain indifferent.

Under these circumstances, I appeal to the Mayor of Kolkata to take immediate steps to repair the drains of our locality for the well-being of the common people.

Yours Faithfully

(Your name)

A permanent resident of Ward No.17

Kanpur, Uttar Pradesh

China is first in population in the world. Next comes India. At the time of Independence, our population was thirty crores. Now it is more than 100 crores Every year we have a new Australia added to our population. If this problem is not solved, India cannot be a happy, healthy and a prosperous nation.

Antartica because of her simple ecosystem and lack of biodiversity is the perfect place to study how little changes can have big consequent action.

A further depletion in the ozone layer will effect the activities of phytoplankton.

अपने सरल पारिस्थितिकी तंत्र और जैव विविधता की कमी के कारण अंटार्कटिका यह अध्ययन करने के लिए एक आदर्श स्थान है कि कैसे छोटे परिवर्तन बड़े परिणामी कार्रवाई कर सकते हैं। सूक्ष्म फाइटोप्लांकटन को लें-समुद्र की वे घासें संपूर्ण समुद्री खाद्य श्रृंखला का पोषण करती हैं। वे कार्बन को आत्मसात करते हैं और प्रकाश संश्लेषण नामक प्रक्रिया में कार्बनिक यौगिकों का संश्लेषण करते हैं। ओजोन परत में और कमी से फाइटोप्लांकटन की गतिविधियां प्रभावित होंगी।
