Respected Sir,Through the columns of your esteemed newspaper, | wish to draw
the attention of the people’s representatives and the municipal

parking of autos in Mayur Vihar locality.
The entire footpath is taken over by the autos and there is no space
for the pedestrians to walk on the footpath. Last week an old man
was hit by a speeding motorbike while he was going to the market
in the morning, walking on the road because the autos were
occupying the footpath.
On behalf of the residents of the colony, | request the concerned
authorities to kindly look into the matter and help vacate the
footpath for the use of pedestrians.
Yours sincerely
