Subject : Regarding the Illegal parking of tempos and trucks in front of shops and bus stops.
Respected Sir / Madam
I am writing this letter to inform you about the Illegal parking. I am a shop owner of Sunmangal Shop at Shalimar area. My shop number is 10 near the bus stop. For past several years it has been very painful situations for us but now it has become worse. I have a Stationary and attach medical shop so there are always customers visiting at our shop. We have a small parking for our customers beside our shop, rarely 5 to 10 mins each customer waits till their product shopping, we gave a small parking for our customers to avoid unnecessary traffic jam in front of the shop and nearby our shop and to make convenient for our customers to shop at our Sunmangal Shop But these tempos and trucks are parking their vehicles in front of our shop and nearby shops, this parking is illegal parking. Earlier it was one or heavy vehicles parked but nowadays the tempos trucks both have started parking in front of our shops. We had told these tempos truck drivers not to park their vehicle here but they just ignore and without any permission to park their vehicles for hours, sometimes the vehicles are there for a whole day. All this is affecting our customers due to which my shop income is getting affected now. Not only my shop but nearby shops are facing the same issue of Illegal parking. This also leads to traffic jam in front of my shop, Small vehicles are facing problem to move out, also people don’t have enough space to walk. This is a lot of waste of time too. I personally talked to the drivers but they didn’t listen to my words. So I am forced to write this letter to you.
There is a bus stop near my shop 200m away from my shop, there also the same problem. People park their vehicles near the bus stop. Separate parking is been given at the market-side ground still few people park their vehicles near the bus stop. Sometimes the tempos are also been parked beside the bus stop which is totally illegal. I would like inform you about the accident of school auto rickshaw occurred yesterday at the bus stop and the reason of this accident was the illegal parking of truck infront of bus stop. Fortunately no one was seriously harmed in this accident but who will take the guarantee of this everytime. What if the children would have got hurt. This is not acceptable. Therefore I would request you seek into this matter. Would request you to make a public announcement that whosoever parks in front of a shop or bus stop needs to pay the fine. Also I would be great if CCTV are installed at such places to monitor whether people are following the rules/laws. So the concerned authority should once come and inspect the situation and take action accordingly.
I hope my request is taken into consideration and ensure this illegal parking of tempos and trucks is been solved at the earliest. Thanking you.
Yours Faithful
