Dear Sir
Sub: HELP TO CONTROL NUISANCE CREATED BY VIDEO GAME CENTERS
I am a resident of Malkajgiri and a college student. I would like to bring to your kind notice that there are some serious problems created by the recently opened video games centre on the main road, which has become the main attraction in the region. The centre is attracting many college and school-going students. They have deviated from their studies and extracurricular activities. Most of my friends in this area as well as from the surroundings are more interested in sitting in the video game parlour than in the library or study room. Though parents do try to control them, the children are being a bit too uneasy with them as the centre is open even late at the night.
I would like to request you to make the owner keep some kind of restrictions regarding the age group and timings.
I am sure you will kindly take necessary action at the earliest.
Thanks and regards
Yours sincerely

Dear Sir/Mam
Sub: NEED TO SAVE CHILDREN FROM STRESS
I would be grateful if you allow me to express my views and grievances in the columns of your esteemed daily about the missing childhood these days.
Undoubtedly, childhood is the most important stage of everyone’s life. But it is often found missing these days. Their childhood is confined to an enclosed world of online classes, homework, tests and video games. What are we actually aiming at? Are we educating them or making them as machines?
The elders of the society need to recollect and realise the reasons for the success they are enjoying today. It’s a well-known fact that their childhood was liberal and creative with fun. Friends and family played a great role in their life. But, do the younger generation enjoy the same way? It’s high time to rethink. Every child should have an idea of life and how to modulate it. For that, they should get into some realities of life. Parents need to take the initiative for this. We should encourage children to socialize, go out and play in the open and develop wholesome personalities.
Yours truly

Sub: REQUEST TO CONTROL DRUNKEN DRIVING
I would like to bring to your kind notice the serious issue in our area. The problem is caused by drunken drivers. The late evenings are always troubling times for the residents of RNS Colony, Himayatnagar, as there is uncontrolled traffic and sometimes even minor accidents occur involving at least one drunken driver.
We are really tired of these issues daily. It’s irritating, but there is no way to control it, as the drivers are not in a position to get convinced.
It would be kind of you if you can post some constables in our area, to check the drunken drivers so that we will be able to live in peace.
Thank you

I am to bring to your kind notice the pollution your unit is resulting in the
adjoining river and atmosphere. Effluents – untreated in huge quantities are discharged directly and secretly into the river. Strong and harmful chemicals are causing loss of lives in the river directly and harm to People and crops indirectly. People of India treat rivers as sacred and offer prayers to them and rivers are lifelines to human civilization. It is the responsibility of every citizen to protect rivers in all respects. Money is undoubtedly important. But, lives are more precious.
So, I would like to draw the attention of authorities to the problem and request them to take necessary actions to avoid any further pollution with immediate effect.

The garbage container in our locality is overflowing due to non-cleaning for many days. The rotten waste materials smell bad thus making the people of the nearby area wear a scarf around their noses.
With a woman at the helm of affairs and another woman as the Sanitary Inspector, the village should have been much cleaner than ever. it is better late than never .it is high time you initiate corrective measures at once. The monsoon season is notorious For spreading diseases. If the sanitary conditions here continue to be in the same state, lives would be at great risk for all including small children.
I hope you understand the gravity of the situation and expect early action.

Subject: ILL EFFECTS OF SOCIAL MEDIA
Dear Sir/Mam
I wish to bring to the notice of the authorities the ill effects of negative and demotivating content in both print and electronic media and the entertainment industry.
It is no secret that social media is a popular platform for young and impressionable minds to fall easy prey to misleading and demoralizing content. Unfortunately, this can cause unnecessary challenges to mental health.
In the good olden day cinema and media used to offer healthy and personality-developing messages. But nowadays Media and cinema industry are more concerned about their commercial interests than their Social Responsibility. but today ‘good’ is to be searched for closely while ‘bad’ overflows and overwhelms.
It is a time that controlling authorities exercise their powers and set things right at the earliest.
Thanking you
Yours truly
