Miserably dirty

This is to draw attention to the unsanitary conditions in Block 2 of Nazimabad. Heaps of filth and refuse are lying everywhere. The drains are seldom washed. A four smell always fills the air. Both the drains and the heaps of filth make a good breeding place for mosquitoes and flies.

To make matters worse, some cows and buffaloes are tethered in the street. Not only do they obstruct traffic, they also add to the filth. If this stage of things is allowed to go on, some epidemic will soon break out. So I request the KMC authorities to pay urgent attention to this problem and thereby make the lives of the residents of the area a little less miserable.
