Sub.: Water Logging
I am Ravi, a student of class 12, Laxmi Public School, Dhanbad. I am writing this letter with deep concern about the poor condition of roads in metropolitan cities. During the rainy season, there is water logging everywhere, which makes life difficult for the commuters to walk ride a bicycle or drive a car. It is extremely dangerous for the people to come out of their houses during the rainy season as there are potholes on the roads which further lead to accidents. Not only have accidents become a concern, but also the risk due to the spread of various diseases like dengue, chikungunya, etc.
An awareness must be created about this condition. The concerned authorities should take action in this regard. Media is one of the most powerful tools these days. It holds the power to influence people and can definitely force the government and public to be more responsible towards water logging problems and measures for improving the condition of the roads.
I hope you will consider my request and take action in this regard.
Yours faithfully

I am Aman, a student of class 12, Jeewan Public School, Deoghar. I am writing this letter with deep concern about the unavailability of online classes in remote areas. I too live in a remote area and face several problems with regard to my study.
In fact, the online classes will greatly benefit students preparing for board examination. In an online class several tips related to examination can be detailed. Besides, students can also ask questions and clear their doubts. Study material prepared by subject experts holds high value for students as it will hugely support their preparation. We know that because of the lack of best study material and proper guidance, we suffer. Students from remote areas cannot raise their level and make their career. These online classes will not only give them the best study material, but prepare them for competitive examinations also. Media is a powerful tool to activate the concerned authorities. It is a matter concerning countless poor students living in remote areas.

Sub : Inclusion of Historical Tour
I am Mayank, a student of class 12, Pitambar Public School, Dumka. I am writing this letter with regard to the inclusion of historical tour programme in the new academic curriculum. In our country, the places of historical importance and interest are located all over and its tour would be beneficial for students. Everybody knows that history is the biography of nations. Although we read about the history of these places in our text books, our visit to these places will broaden our knowledge related to life, culture, economics and festivals of these places. Further our visit will bring us in close contact with the local people, which will deepen our acquaintance with them.
Moreover, historical knowledge is very essential for any foreigner. They become attracted to the place whose history is attractive and interesting. We know that thousands of people from all over the world visit Agra to see Taj Mahal every year, which is one of the seven wonders of the world. Its history is related to Shahjahan, one of the greatest Mughal emperors. The Taj is a marvel in architecture. If we do not visit this place we will not be able to know the secret of this wonder.

Sub : Concern over Protests and Road Blocks
I am Veena, a student of class 12, Veena Public School, Agra. I am writing this letter to express my concern over protests and road blocks organised recently all over the country.
India is a great democracy. Our democracy is age-old and time tested. It is a proof that we believe in the power of people’s voice. There is no contradiction at all that in a democracy, several political parties hold different opinions regarding some burning issues. But these political parties have better options to raise their voice the parliament. Protests and road blocks creates problems for the government as the businessmen and commuters have to face countless problems. Moreover, the office-goers fail to reach the office in time. Shaheen Bagh is one of such protests. As a result the Delhi—Ghaziabad road was blocked for more than one month, which created a lot of problems for people. The people had to divert their route to reach office, schools and hospitals. It was a great loss of time and money for the people as well as the country. Our parliament provides people better options to hear their grievances and their concern can easily be sorted out.

I am Shruti, a student of class 12, Konkan Public School, Hissar. I am writing this letter to express my concern over the use of mobile phones in schools. We live in a digital world and mobile phones keep us connected to the outside world.
Technology has made the world a global village. We get connected with the world in an instant. For students, mobiles phones are the most suitable tool to get latest information related to a subject. They need not visit the library and turn over the countless pages of the book. The Google is the best master which responds to our query in seconds. But excess of anything is bad. School is the temple of knowledge where students prepare themselves for future. They learn how a civilized man lives in society. The precious time of students should not be wasted. Besides, the class is not the place where mobile phones should be used. It means that we are wasting time. In school the use of mobile phone must be banned. I appreciate the decision taken by the school authorities with regard to banning the use of mobile phones in the classroom.
Yours faithfully

Dear Sir
Sub: Need to Change Male Mindset Towards Women
Through the columns of your revered newspaper, I would like to express my views about the mindset of men towards women. India is moving ahead with leaps and bounds, but sadly the male mindset towards women is still static and ancient. Patriarchal thinking has relegated women into homes and kitchens and refuses to allow them to live as independent citizens of a progressive country. Signs of patriarchy are visible all around us: Women are stalked, molested, attacked with acid, and subjugated into doing lowly jobs which pay them even less than their male colleagues. Males take them as secondary citizen who are fit only to serve. The bias against them exists in many professions like finance, armed forces, to name a few.
Today, there are women who are taking their rightful place in professional and other areas. It is heartening to note that the topper in the recent civil services examination is a woman. Such exemplary women will contribute greatly in proving that women are no less intelligent or hardworking than males. I sincerely hope that similar success will grace the lives of majority of women who are uneducated and live miserable lives.

There were many bookstalls containing books on different subjects like science,commerce, general knowledge, philosophy and religion. There was a rich collection of english and regional literature also.
Many publishing companies had put up their stalls and it was a great experience to go through these stalls. Leading publishing companies like Tata McGraw-Hill, Penguin books etc, had exhibited their collection of encyclopedias and general knowledge books and packages.
The arrangements were excellent. The air-conditioned halls made the visit more comfortable. Free shuttle service, water and comfortable sofas placed for the tired booklovers were quite thoughtful.
I am happy to see that the love of books has still not been lost to the great appeal of the internet. My belief in the timeless appeal of books is once more validated in the book fair.

Sub: Deteriorating Standard of Living in the Capital City.
Through the columns of your reputed magazine, I wish to express my views on the deteriorating standard of living in the capital city of Delhi.
What does the standard of living actually mean? Does it mean possessing expensive goods of comfort and beauty, living in posh bungalows or the overalll decent and peaceful living conditions including health and hygiene, pollution-free environment and above all, a value-based society.
Considering all these, the living conditions in Delhi are really appalling. Dumps of garbage, heavy traffic congestion on the roads, growing atmospheric pollution, high levels of noise pollution, overcrowding at public places, etc., throw ample light on the deteriorating standard of living of the people. Our lungs are hungry for fresh air and green belts.
The large number of immigrants, from other states to Delhi, put tremendous pressure on the resources of the city. The housing problem is growing rapidly with lack of civic amenities. Life is so busy that there is little interaction among neighbours. Hurry and worry is what best describes the life in the capital city. With growing consumerism and rising prices, the disparity between rich and poor is increasing day by day.
Something judicious needs to be done to remedy this situation. More green belts and ‘silence zones’ should be created. The unrestricted inflow of people to Delhi should also be checked. Only then the standard of living can be improved.
Yours truly

Through the columns of your esteemed newspaper, I wish to draw the attention of the concerned authorities towards the problem of water scarcity in our area.
It is still early summer and the residents are already facing acute water shortage in the area. The supply is cut off at 8.30 a.m. in the morning and is restored only for half an hour in the evening between 6 p.m. to 7 p.m. Since the timings are erratic, many people, especially, the working couples are unable to store water. Frequent complaints to the Jal Board haven’t yielded any result as the authorities express their helplessness saying that one of the tanks of the Hyderpur Water Treatment Plant is under repair and has been shut down for a month. Thereby affecting the water supply in the area. But it is nearly one and a half months since the problem began, yet there is no respite to the residents. The Jal Board should, in the meantime, make provisions for water tankers at different hours of the day. Also, measures must be taken to expedite the repair work.

Sub: Problems caused by the Free Sale of Illicit Liquor
The recent deaths due to the consumption of illicit liquor is a matter of great concern. We often hear or read about people dying due to the consumption of illicit liquor, but never come to know about the follow up action or the punishment given to the guilty. What a tragedy! Families get ruined, children orphaned but the illegal trade continues unabated. Why is our government so apathetic towards this social curse or maybe, keeps the eyes closed deliberately because the custodians of law have their palms greased through these means only.
However, we, the awakened citizens, must raise our voice against this evil. We must try to educate not only the children but also the adults. Responsibility can also be given to the Gram Panchayats and the best village or panchayat should be awarded if they are able to eradicate this menace from their villages. However, if the guilt is proved, the person(s) must be given severe punishment to eliminate this heinous crime completely. I am sure that the content shared here expresses the views of many. In the hope that sanity may prevail among people some day.

Sub: Widespread Fear of Terrorism
Through this letter, I wish to express my concern over the widespread fear caused in the minds of the people because of growing terrorist activities all over the world.
Terrorism as a method to achieve political aims has become a worldwide phenomenon. However, the shameful and hideous terrorist attacks on the Parliament, in the Taj Hotel, Mumbai and recent incidents in Kashmir and Rajasthan has given terrorism a new dimension. The daring assault on the dignity and prestige of one of the largest democracies of the world has shattered the faith of people completely. What is worse, it has left religious fanaticism behind as its offspring. The widespread communal riots as a fallout of these terrorist activities in India has instilled a great fear in the minds of common people. As it is, in the cross fire of political game, it is always the common man who suffers the most.
Stringent methods must be taken to restore peace and harmony in the country. One must keep the interests of the nation above the interests of the community or the individual. Sanity must prevail at all costs.

While going to school at 8.50 a.m, I notice many stray animals wandering here and there on the busy market roads. The position is almost the same — a repeat performance in the afternoon. Sometimes these animals cross the roads in a long unending array, thus causing traffic blocks as well as accidents. These animals create a health hazard too by urinating everywhere. Huge heaps of dung are lying here and there. Flies hover over them and insects breed inside them.
We have already written to the concerned authorities but no action has been taken so far. Hopefully, this letter will meet the eyes of our worthy officials, and steps will be taken to end this problem of stray animals.

There is complete darkness when there is a breakdown in domestic power supply.
The roads have uncovered manholes over the sewerage lines. These have caused a couple of accidents.
An eight year old child was saved from death only yesterday.
The garbage disposal system is very poor. Perhaps the municipal authorities do not take cognizance of the existence of this Housing Society at all. It is only once in a blue moon that a truck visits the area to collect household refuse. I hope that the authorities will pay attention to the genuine difficulties of the residents and take effective remedial action.

I wish to draw the attention of the readers to the increasing menace of capitation fee which has become prevalent in schools at the time of admission. Although nobody seems to be in favour of this practice it is going on unchecked.
To me it seems nothing short of corruption to seek funds in the name of buildings, facilities etc. Isn’t it a shame that in a country where education was once free, it is now being sold and that too at a price. This unfair pressure on parents is taking a toll and it is high time a legislation is drawn up against this malpractice. Awareness against this extraction of money in the name of donation or building fund should be created. All sections of the society including parents, teachers, students and educationists should come up in arms against this system and force the educational institutions to discontinue this evil practice forthwith. Providing quality education is one thing and the misuse of funds under the garb of capitation fee is quite another.
I urge the government to take stringent action against these dealers of education and lay down as well as enforce strict laws to curb this menace.

Sub: Commercialisation of Education
I wish to draw the attention of the public in general and authorities in particular to the crass commercialisation prevalent in the good schools renowned for providing quality education.
My son goes to a prestigious public school which admits students after conducting so many tests and charges a hefty amount as various funds. To a casual onlooker the system appears restrictive and selective, but the overcrowded classrooms with 60 to 70 students in the primary section tell a different story. Almost every section of every class is in a similar situation. Even though the school works in two shifts there doesn’t seem to be any respite from the ever increasing size of the class.
The overcrowding of classrooms adversely affects the academic standards. It is very difficult for any teacher, howsoever, resourceful to build any rapport or conduct interactive sessions in such large classes.
The curriculum is ‘covered’ in a poor manner.
The academic values are brushed aside with nonchalance and the sole factor that governs the school authorities is the money that these large numbers rake in.
Will the authorities look into this sad state of affairs and bring an end to this commercialisation of education resulting in falling academic standards?

Dear Sir
Sub: Noise pollution in Janata Nagar
Your paper brought out a special supplement on the state of noise pollution in our city but nothing worth mentioning has been done since then to reduce the level of noise. During peak hours the noise level crosses the 100 decibel mark. It is feared that constant exposure to high level of noise for long periods may not only cause deafness but also induce other diseases like headache, hypertension and blood pressure.
Ours is a posh locality situated in a lush green area. It was the most quiet area in the city. However, for the last one year, there has been a steady increase in noise pollution and it has become intolerable. Even late at night, one can hear loudspeakers blaring out marriage songs or election speeches. Although high pitched noise is no good for any one, its worst victims are the students whose concentration is disturbed and the people suffering from hypertension and heart related ailments.
Will it be possible for you to invite the attention of the civic authorities towards our plight? Will they impose some curbs and restrain the use of loudspeakers after 10 pm?
Yours truly

Subject : Attacks on old people.

Sir,

Through the columns of your reputed newspaper, I show my deep concern and draw the attention of the government towards the growing feeling of fear and insecurity among people due to frequent attacks on old people living alone.

The recent attacks on old people clearly indicate lapses on our part. In addition to this, social media and different reports are creating disharmony instead of doing something constructive. The old people are not safe in their own homes. These attacks have taken away their peace and tranquility. Many old people have lost their lives. This shatters the faith of people in the government.

In order to combat this menace, we should make concerted efforts. Those who are caught and found guilty, should be taught a lesson.

I hope the authorities will be more cautious and initiate stern steps to encounter the enemies of humanity.

Thanking you,
Yours truly,
Tanvi/Shirish

Dear Sir
Sub: Diminishing number of birds
With deep regret I wish to bring to the kind notice about the decrease in the population of birds in Mysore.
Mysore is known to have more than 500 species of birds but many of them are on the verge of extinction.
According to the reports from the recent seminar held on Conservation of Birds, there was a time, when a number of birds would flock to the banks of river Kaveri, Bandipur wild life sanctuary and forested canopy in Mysore. These numbers have come crashing down in the recent years. The main reasons are rampant construction of buildings, bridges and flyovers, cutting of forests and of course environmental pollution.
Many species have become endangered. It is time the people of Mysore are made aware of this grave situation by conducting seminars and workshops.
The locals should be given incentives for preserving the birds. Sanction for the construction of buildings, malls, bridges and so on should be given only after proper evaluation of the environmental impact of those constructions over the life of species there. Let’s not forget that birds are an important link in the food chain.
I request the government, environmentalists and the society to show their concern before it is too late. I would be thankful to you if you would publish my view in your esteemed daily.

Yours faithfully

Sir,

Subject : Exploitation of Children in Urban Society

I want to draw the attention of the general public and the concerned authorities towards the above cited problem through this letter of mine in your newspaper.

In Urban Societies parents are increasingly using their children as means of achieving their own unfulfilled wishes, resulting in physical and mental exploitation of the children. Forcing children to participate in reality shows or cajoling them to play roles in TV serials by shunning games are some examples of child exploitation. Even parents among audience of such programmes openly compare their wards with child actors on TV. In school arena parents put pressure on their wards, to excel in the field of academics, sports and other activities alike without considering their field of interest and abilities.

The implication of exploitation of children in the guise of making their future bright is evident now. The diseases like hypertension, obesity, diabetes which were known to be adult diseases a decade back are common among children. Psychotic problems among children are also rising with cases of drug abuse, depression or even suicide is reported frequently.

Authorities in the Child Rights Department and educational institutes should come out with bolder steps to curb the problem. There should be a ban on all types of advertisements and programmes on TV with child actors below 14 years of age. There should be regular counselling for parents in schools to make them understand the consequences of stressing the children.

Yours faithfully

Samita
