How to write a letter to the Editor of a Newspaper, commenting on the Power Failure.
Khairpur Malhan,
Sheikhupura Distt:

The
Editor,
The
Evening Star,
Lahore.
Sir,
Electric
supply in the rural areas is most unsatisfactory. The pinch is felt acutely when
the tube wells are needed more. During the month of June last, when we were hit
by a dust storm, the power supply remained suspended for over three weeks. The poles
carrying the wires are so insecurely erected that even a mild storm uproots
them and the electric supply is interrupted. It takes WAPDA long to restore the
supply because it is short of the necessary material and labour.
The
officers in charge hardly move out to see things for themselves. The job is left
to the Line-man or, at best to the Line Superintendent. The rates of
electricity are being regularly raised, but no effort to improve the service is
in evidence.
Yours
truly,
M.S.M.
