Dear Sir, I am writing
this
letter to draw attention to the degrading condition of
lake
Kankariya. As you might be aware, though
lake
Kankariya is an artificial man-made
lake
, it is known for its crystal clear water.
However
last
week, when I was on a morning walk I found a couple of polythene bags floating around.
However
, I draw the attention of the cleaning staff and get it cleaned, but I am feeling that the condition is getting worse day bay, yesterday I found the north corner of the
lake
was completely filled with plastic

north of the

is responsible for it. I found that the owners of the stall are collecting garbage in large
waste
containers and in every morning, they dump it carelessly in the
lake
. I believe
this
is because they do not have any other place, but the
lake
, to dump
waste
. Can you please arrange a
waste
collecting truck every morning? So they do not have to dispose of
waste
in the
lake
. Hope you will act on
this
on an immediate basis and help us to keep our
lake
clean. Regards, Jay Patel
