I am a concerned citizen with deep roots in the community of Mathrusree Nagar, Hafeezpet, Miyapur in Telangana. My family lives here and I frequently visit. It pains me to see our beautiful lakes (Meedikunta lake) being turned into dump yards and the subsequent rise of mosquitoes that pose a serious health risk to our community.

Mosquitoes are not just annoying pests; they are carriers of deadly diseases like Malaria and Dengue. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), India accounts for 2% of global malaria cases and 2% deaths due to malaria globally (source: WHO World Malaria Report 2020). This is a significant concern for us as we live near stagnant water bodies which serve as breeding grounds for these insects.

Our local government has been largely silent on this issue. We need immediate action to clean up our lakes and implement effective mosquito control measures. This is not just about improving quality of life—it's about safeguarding public health.

We implore the local government authorities in Telangana to take swift action on this matter before it escalates further into a public health crisis. Please sign this petition if you care about the well-being of our community members and want urgent steps taken towards mosquito control in Mathrusree Nagar, Hafeezpet, Miyapur.
