Subject: Spread of waterborne diseases.
Sir,
Through the column of your esteemed daily, I would like to draw the kind attention of the concerned authorities and common masses towards As a responsible citizen, I’d like to create awareness about the sudden spurt in the water-borne diseases among the public through this letter. With the onset of summer, there is a sudden spurt of water-borne diseases like cholera, dysentery, etc.
It is always better to prevent these than to cure later for we lose so much energy when affected. Since unclean water contains a lot of bacteria and germs, we should avoid drinking it. It is better to boil the water we drink. As for food items, we should always keep them covered. It is always preferable if we eat freshly cooked food as it takes 4 to 6 hours to infect the food. Whenever we eat or cook food, we should wash our hands thoroughly with soap.
If in spite of precautions, we get any disease through contaminated water, we must get treatment. High fever, restlessness, and blood in stool are the symptoms of these diseases. If we have these, we should rush to the doctor immediately.
Thank you,
Regards,
Varun.

Subject: Air pollution -a concern.
Sir,
Through the column of your esteemed daily, I would like to draw the kind
attention of the concerned authorities and common masses towards the problem of pollution in our city. Among other environmental problems, we have a pollution problem which is on the rise, thanks to the increasing number of factories.
They are the major source of air and water pollution. Air pollution leads to suffocation, breathing problem, and lung diseases when our lungs are choked with polluted air. If the air we breathe is polluted, then we will surely be a victim of such diseases.
Factory owners should be aware of this. They should take responsibility for the environment around them. The thick smoke emitted by the chimneys of factories is full of poisonous gases. This mixes with pure air and causes pollution. There should be a strict law to punish the owners of such factories if they do not take the moral responsibility to keep the air clean.
Thank you,

Subject: Cattle on roads.
Sir,
Through your columns, I’d like to draw attention to the menace caused by cattle on the roads. With people building palatial houses for themselves, there is little or no space left for the animals. Even those who own or domesticate cattle are least bothered to provide them with a good shelter.
The result is that we find them loitering around in public places, thus hindering the traffic. If they are driven away or made to move by a honk, their owners come to us enraged and scold us with harsh words, sometimes they even hit us. Now, the question is who’ll take the responsibility for these creatures? Of course their owners!
They should provide them with good shelter and keep them safe from traffic, diseases, or attacks from the public. If the owners do not take the moral responsibility to provide shelter, they should be punished. There is an urgent need for a law to take action against such irresponsible owners.
Yours

Subject: Value system is the backbone of an individual’s character.
Sir,
Through the esteemed columns of your newspaper, I want to express my views on the above subject which is really a major concern for all of us and for future generations. Ethics play an important role in the lives of all.
We learn ethics throughout our lives. During schooling, we learn basic values like honesty, truthfulness, helpfulness, sharing, punctuality, etc. Good ethics make us a good student and moreover a good human being. Only morally good human beings can help for the upliftment of the nation. In today’s society where crime is on the top, the role of ethics is very important. Values are needed in every task viz., social, political, educational. We can trust doctors, lawyers only if we feel they have true values. Without any true values, doctors can act as butchers. No doubt, the character is more important than coins.
I hope you will publish my views in your esteemed paper so that the mindset of common mass will be changed to make our future generations strong and successful.
Thanks,
Yours faithfully,

The stray dogs remain hungry due to the scarcity of food some hard-hearted and ignorant children and fellows kick them or throw stones at them. Sometimes, children pull the ears or the tail of the puppies out of enjoyment. In fact, pets are our good companions in loneliness.
They never cheat house/home us and always wan from t to share their true love with us. Many pets such as dogs selflessly protect our provide help to us. Hence, it is our responsibility to create awareness in the public to treat even the stray Hence; it is our responsibility to create awareness of the p dogs and pets with kindness and affection.
We must awaken the MCD not to trap or kill them but to shelter them. The ailing pets should be healed rather than poisoned. Now, it’s time to change our attitude towards pets as they are also living entities like us I sincerely hope that you will publish my article in your newspaper.

Through the column of your esteemed daily, I would like to draw the kind attention of the concerned authorities and common masses towards It is with great concern that I am writing this letter to your esteemed newspaper. Youngsters nowadays, unfortunately, seek thrill through their driving exploits. It is more of a game to earn bragging rights in their peer group, rather than a serious issue.
Following traffic rules is perhaps uncool, and a gamble with one’s life more adventurous. However, they fail to realize that not only do they put their lives at risk, but also that of others. The number of accidents has also increased significantly due to this attitude.
Kindly publish this letter so that today’s generation understands the necessity of following traffic rules, and staying safe.

attention of the concerned authorities and common masses towards your reputed newspaper, I would like to air my views on the above subject. The planet Earth is home to innumerable plants and animals. We should not be so selfish to cage them for sheer entertainment. Moreover, today, many animals are safer in cages, or so it seems.
Poaching is highly rampant, and creatures in the wild live in danger of extinction instead of being an important link in the ecosystem. However, the place of these animals is in the forest, and not in the urban concrete jungles. How would we as humans feel if we were locked up for our safety? Definitely uncomfortable, to say the least!
People need to realize this truth, and the sooner they do so, the better it is.
Thanking you,
Yours sincerely,

Subject: Pros and cons of media
Sir/Madam,
Through your esteemed newspaper, I would like to present my views on the pros and cons of media. The media, today is a veritable source of information, and also, in a sense, a crusader of justice.
In today’s age of information technology, almost nothing is hidden. Journalists, especially those on television uncover corruption, lawlessness and injustice at the highest levels of office, ensuring a certain degree of accountability.
However, with 24-hour news channels, the quality of content has deteriorated. The print media, too, has lost its magic due to instant news. Sometimes, mountains are created out of molehills too. Thus, one is forced to sift through volumes of information.
Yours sincerely,
XYZ.

Subject: To improve the plight of beggars
Sir,
Through the columns of your esteemed newspaper, I would like to draw the kind attention of the Local Councilor of Srinagar towards the increasing
number of beggars near the local temples and other religious places. They have become a menace to the people coming for worship. These people show their fake bandages or small children have fallen ill and ask for money. When we give money to them, we indirectly provide them indulgence and hence their number is increasing day-by-day. People of all age groups can be seen around the temples.
It’s high time that some strict steps should be taken against them. I would like to give a few suggestions. The small children, boys, and girls should be encouraged to get an education. A small school should be opened inside the temple premises in order to provide them with free education, books, and food. The elders should be volunteered for the safekeeping of shoes or belongings of the pilgrims. They can be involved in Prashad distribution or making lines of people. They should be given a fixed amount for their services. These would not only eradicate beggary but also make them independent.
Thanking you

Subject: Virtual world-much more appealing than the physical and practical one.
Sir,
Through the columns of your prestigious newspaper, I would like to
express my views on the topic-Virtual World-much more appealing than the physical and practical one. This is Tact as the virtual world is full of hopes and desires. It leads us to fantasies and gives new rays of hope to fulfill them. Whereas the real physical and practical world is coarse. It shows the real pain, struggle, and hard work required to fulfill our dreams. The physical world has no place for fantasy.
The technology, new gadgets, computer games, and other amazing devices attract the younger generation. The internet is allowing us to get information faster than anything else, people can communicate with many people in the world sitting in their own room but they are far away from the real social world. It is easy to make friends in the virtual world as they cannot see or know their character whereas it is difficult to even maintain your relations in the real world without your efforts.
Hence, I would like to say although, the virtual world is necessary for our growth but not at the cost of the practical and real one. One needs to connect both.
Thanking you

Sir,
Through the columns of your esteemed newspaper, I would like to express
my views on the benefits of Art of Living for students. I happened to attend the workshop organized by my school’s yoga club. The programme proved to be very beneficial. This programme teaches us time management techniques, coping with our academic pressure. We, students, face lots of problems in handling the stress caused by the increasingly competitive world.
The programme helps to handle the stress without affecting one’s health. It also teaches emotional and social skills, the skills to deal with relations and people. Besides these, the programme proves to be very effective in developing a healthy attitude towards life. Students are not careful about their eating habits, their health. This programme leads them to the right path giving them a healthy mind in a healthy body.
I would suggest every student attend such workshops at least once in their lifetime as it will result in a meaningful life.
Thanking you
Yours sincerely

Subject: Pressure faced by adolescents
Dear Sir
Through the columns of your esteemed newspaper, I would like to raise the
issue of pressures faced by adolescents. In the absence of proper counselling, an adolescent is likely to take to crime, start drinking, get involved in fights, enter the world of drug trafficking or get engaged in verbal, physical or sexual abuse. Crime by young people has become rampant in metropolitan cities. The adolescents are thrown in the criminal world at a tender age being oblivious to the path of being a criminal.
Secondly, kids who start drinking before the age of 21 are more likely to be involved in fights, commit crimes, use drugs and engage in verbal, physical, or sexual violence. The youth of today are technical and are deprived of fun they can have in playing football on the actual ground than on a FIFA game, play station. It leads to obesity, the root cause of many medical problems.
These issues can be handled with the combined efforts of parents, society and social organizations. Moreover, the police and other law enforcing agencies should reach these adolescents and counsel them properly.
Yours faithfully
Nitin
