The Principal
St. Ann's Convent,
Jamnagar
Sub: Inadequate Library facilities
On behalf of the students of the school, I would like to bring to your notice that we experience an inadequacy in the library facilities. We have only one library period in the whole week, which is not sufficient for doing reference work. The library is also not kept open after school hours
The number of books on subjects like Computers, Physics and History are very less. Also some of the books are in an absolute dilapidated condition and many students do not return books as no strict action is taken. We suggest that the school authorities should contact the Ex-students of the school for donation and books for the library so that the future students may benefit.
Sir, we request you to modernise the library and help us get a good collection of books because we have realised that we need a good exposure to all types of writing. Reading helps us to have a good understanding of our subjects. Looking forward to your positive response.
Thanking you and please oblige.

Sub: Nuisance of hawkers selling harmful foodstuff
Dear Sir,
I am a student of $12th$ standard of $ABC$ School and would like to bring to your kind notice that many hawkers sell various kinds of eatables outside our school. Their food items are displayed in the open, attracting a lot of dust and flies.
They also use a lot of adulterated oil and other harmful ingredients. Many children have fallen sick with stomach disorders and vomiting. The school authorities have tried to discourage the students from buying from the hawkers. But students have no alternative and continue to do so.
I would not mind them if they were selling their items hygienically but playing around with the students health is a crime. This problem also exists at other schools. The hawkers have also fought with the school authorities and refused to budge from the area. I request you to look into the matter and take strong action against these errant hawkers. They need to be fined or their things need to be confiscated. Please help us by doing the needful.
Thanking you.

Sub: Reckless driving by youngsters
Dear Sir,
As a troubled citizen, I feel sorry to say that the youngsters in the city drive at a speed not acceptable in a congested city. They overtake from the wrong side. Many of them are busy doing stunts or have bets on racing.
Everyday there are incidents of horrific accidents. Pedestrians and cyclists are not at all respected. Many of the youngsters drive without proper license.
The traffic police are not able to bring the situation under control.
I request you to write a strong article on this problem so that the concerned authorities rise to the occasion and take proper action against the erring youth and take strict action like confiscating their vehicles and driving licenses so that the people of the city feel safe and secured while using the roads in the city.
Thanking you

Answer

May $5, 2019$ Dear Sir,
Subject: Complaint about bad roads
Sir,
I would like to bring to your notice about the bad conditions of roads in the Satellite area. There are potholes and large pits all along the roads. It is too difficult to drive along. Moreover, this is a thickly populated area with schools and hospitals in the surroundings. Bad road conditions lead to a number of accidents. Yesterday I witnessed a small boy being knocked down by a bike which had lost its control due to a pothole on the road.The boy had to be rushed to the hospital. I wrote to the concerned authorities a month back, but no action has been taken so far.
I hope with this getting published In your esteemed daily, municipal authorities would rush to attend to sort out this problem. As I fear, the oncoming monsoon could worsen the situation further.
Yours truly,
Arun

Dear Sir,
Subject: Stray cattle nuisance
You must be aware of the recent accidents in the city on account of cattle obstructing the roads and the vehicular traffic. This is all because the cattle owners letting loose their cows on the roads.
It is a common sight cows squatting on the roads creating obstruction to the flow of traffic. Recently, a scooterist was fatally injured as he was knocked down by a cow and today he is lying in hospital with a fractured leg.There is none to take responsibility Although he was not in the wrong still he is penalised. In another ? incident, a car going smoothly had a mishap, a cow suddenly came in front of the vehicle just from nowhere and was hurt a little. Soon a crowd gathered and the car owner was forced < to pay a thousand rupees as compensation.
Isn’t it the responsibility of the municipal authorities and their subordinate staff to remove the stray cattle and allow a continuous flow of safe traffic? The negligent cattle owners should be brought to book and heavily penalised so that the motorists are safe.
I request the city fathers to take up the? matter urgently. I hope this letter, through wide! circulation of your newspaper, would open the S eyes of the concerned authorities and compel? them to take action to let the people breathe a sigh of relief by doing away with the nuisance.
Thanking you,
Yours truly,

You will perhaps be surprised to receive this letter. Believe me, dear Parth, it is from me, your dear friend. Accept this letter as a token of my love to you. We quarrelled over a petty matter, which now, I think, might have been easily averted. Now, on pondering over it, I think that it was due to someone’s poisoning our ears. Many are jealous of our friendship.
I spoke harsh words to you, which I should not have done. I really repent of my behaviour. I am really ashamed of my behaviour. I apologise heartily for that. I hope you will forgive me and forget the unfortunate incident. We will be the best of friends as we used to be. I have an earnest desire to see you at the earliest.
Hoping to be your dear friend again,
