Respected Sir,
I am writing this letter to you on behalf of my class. I wish to draw your attention to the growing problem of sanitation around our school campus which is worsening every day. The garbage trucks are not regular, forcing the residents to dump the waste in open fields or on roads. The garbage bins are also very few and unclean. It has increased the risk of diseases and risking the health of children attending the school. Other students have also pointed to the problem of clogged sewers and flooded roads. The insanitation provides a breeding ground to deadly mosquitoes and flies which can spread various diseases.
Therefore, I would request you to take prompt action and take steps for increasing the sanitation around the school. If you could provide for more dustbins, regular sweeping and have the sewers cleaned weekly, we would be very grateful.
I request you to please take a look into this matter and take all necessary steps for solving these problems.
Thanking you,

Yours sincerely,
Name of the sender (XYZ)
