14, Rose Lane
City Name – 000000
12 December 2025
The Officer-in-Charge
Electricity Department
City Name – 000000
Subject: Complaint about Non-Functional Street Lights
Sir/Madam,
I would like to bring to your kind attention that the street lights in our lane have not been working
for the past two weeks. Due to this, the entire area remains dark at night, causing inconvenience
and increasing the risk of accidents and theft.
Residents have been facing difficulty in moving around safely, especially elderly people and
children. Vehicles are moving very fast and the pedestrians are affected. Since our area is away
from the main junction, it might increase the risk of theft as well.
I request you to kindly arrange for the repair of the street lights at the earliest to ensure safety and
security in our neighbourhood.
Thank you.
Yours faithfully,
[Your Name]
Resident, Rose Lane
[Link] Letter: Irregular / Contaminated Water Supply

The Executive Engineer
Water Supply Department
City Name – 000000
Subject: Complaint Regarding Irregular and Poor Water Supply
Sir/Madam,
I am writing to bring to your notice the serious problem of irregular and poor-quality water
supply in our area. For the past two weeks, the water supply has been extremely inconsistent, and
on some days, no water is supplied at all. Additionally, the water we receive is often muddy and
unfit for drinking.
This situation is causing great inconvenience to all the residents. It is becoming difficult to
manage basic household needs, and the poor quality of water poses health risks, especially to
children and the elderly.
I kindly request you to look into this matter urgently and take necessary steps to restore regular
and clean water supply to our locality.
Thank you.
Yours faithfully,
[Your Name]
Resident, Lake View Apartments
