Subject: Poor condition of street lights

Respected Sir/Madam,

Through the columns of your esteemed newspaper, I would like to draw the attention of the concerned authorities towards the poor upkeep of street lights in my locality.

The street lights in our area have not been repaired for quite a while. Only a few of them are functioning. At various places, there are no street lights at all. The situation turns worse after sunset. Many small accidents have happened due to poor visibility and there remains a danger of some major accident. It is highly dangerous for pedestrians as it turns too dark in the night. It has also caused a spurt in the incidence of crime in our area. Poor lighting arrangements may further increase such anti-social activities. The residents have approached the municipal authorities time and again but nothing has been done so far.

I, therefore, request you to kindly publish this article in your esteemed newspaper so that the concerned authorities look into the seriousness of this matter and take necessary action to provide proper lighting arrangements.

Yours truly
(Your name)
