Mangaluru 575 001.
Dear Sir,
Sub.: Water scarcity
Mallikatte is well within the limits of Mangaluru City Corporation and hence I hope the complaints that I place before you will have their place on your high priority list. The people of Mallikatte are going through acute water scarcity. They do not even have enough water to meet their basic necessities. Considering the fact that it is examination time for students, the corporation should try and make life as comfortable as possible for the students.
Callous attitude of citizens who waste a lot of water and the indifference of authorities concerned to the leakage in the main reservoir of water are the cause of water scarcity.
The short-term solution for the problem could be the supply of water through tankers. Long-term plans should include plugging the water wastage and employing more scientific methods of water storage.
While permanent solutions are always better, we the citizens of Mallikatte request you to come up with ad hoc arrangements to end the water crisis in our area immediately.
Thank you,
Yours faithfully,
A concerned citizen

Dear Sir,
Sub.: Request for road repair.
I am a resident of Cox Town, Bengaluru. I wish to bring to your notice the poor condition of the roads in our area.
Almost all the roads in our area have developed deep ditches. It is very difficult to drive, whatever might be the means of conveyance. During rains in particular, water collects in the ditches. It continues to stagnate there unless it gets dried by the sun. These ditches consequently have become breeding grounds for mosquitoes.
The matter has been brought to the notice of the local ward office but no action has been taken so far.
I request you to resolve the matter at the earliest.
Thank you.
Yours faithfully,

Dear Sir,
As a concerned citizen I deem it my duty to bring to your notice the poor drainage system in our locality.
In the past one year not a single repair work has taken place in our locality as far as the drainage system is concerned and it points to the negligent attitude of the department concerned. Let me also add that last year we lodged a minimum of fourteen complaints which seem to have fallen on deaf ears. Some of the open pipes and manholes not only cause traffic hazards but are also dangerous to the lives of the pedestrians. Moreover, the dirty smell has led to swarms of mosquitoes and the place has become a haven for pigs and other animals, all causing health problems.
The problem needs to be addressed immediately. We are given to understand that the budgetary allocation is not enough to take up the repair work. 250 residents have come forward to share half of the expenditure. Hope you will take note of the point that we have come forward with this proposal despite the fact that we are all tax payers and are entitled to proper infrastructural facilities. We urge you to give directives to begin the maintenance and repair work immediately.
Thank you,
Yours faithfully

Write a letter to your friend describing a place of historical importance you have visited recently.

Dear Sukumar,
I have received your letter. Sorry for the delay in replying. In fact, I got to read your letter only yesterday because till yesterday I was in Goa.
You know, the desire to visit Goa is a compulsive one with most. The government also has made the experience a pleasant one for tourists by making available accommodation that suits the pockets of every class of people. But, my interest in Goa is as a historically important place. If we see the influence of the British predominantly everywhere else in India, in Goa – it’s the Portuguese influence. The Portuguese at first came to Goa as traders, then as tourists, later settled as rulers enamoured by the beauty of the place. The Portuguese way of life is reflected in Goa even now. But, we must remember that Goa is put on the world map for its ancient churches like the Basilica of Bom Jesus in Old Goa where the remains of St. Francis Xavier are preserved, the church of Our Lady of Immaculate Conception at Panjim and the Mangeshi temple at Ponda.
What I liked the best about Goa is that despite being multi-lingual and multi-cultural, peace-loving people of Goa have always maintained communal harmony.
Don’t miss the chance of visiting Goa if an opportunity comes your way.
With best wishes
Yours affectionately
Kiran
Write a letter to your friend telling him about a book you have read recently.

Dear Anitha,
I have just put down Arundhathi Roy’s ‘God of Small Things’ and I have an urge to share my excitement with someone. Since you are a voracious reader, I’m sure that you have read the book and whatever I say will make sense to you.
Since the novel is a Booker Prize winner I expected it to be good, but it turned out to be even better. The ease with which Roy writes shows that Indian Writing in English has come of age. Since I am from Kerala, the setting of the novel had a greater charm for me. Even when Roy comes up with shocking details, it is clear that she does it to highlight how bizarre reality can be and not at all with the intention of coming out as a daring novelist. All in all I have fallen in love with her style.
What about you? Have you read any book recently? Do write to me when time permits.
Love
Anjali

Driving licence is given to people who exhibit their ability to control a vehicle, following all the traffic rules. But, the rash driving that is seen in every part of the city now-a-days makes me wonder whether 75% of the drivers deserve the licence at all! Driving is not just an act. It is also a tact. It has both physical and psychological aspects to it. None of us can think of ourselves as the most powerful beings the minute we are behind a wheel. We must remember that rash driving jeopardises not only the life of the driver but also of a whole lot of innocent people. Rash driving should be dealt with very stringently and heavy fine should be imposed on the defaulters. None can play with safety.

There seems to be no pavement at Marathahalli. Moreover, there seems to be not even a road at Marathahalli. If the pavements are illegally occupied by the vendors, the roads are filled with people bargaining and dealing with the vendors. In addition, the vendors dump their waste by the side of the road and since there is no garbage collection system, the whole area stinks. The authorities concerned have all along turned a deaf ear to the complaints of the residents of the area. I hope they will wake up at least now and make the vendors vacate the pavements.

As a resident of Jayanagar III block I would like to bring to the notice of the authorities concerned, the intolerable nuisance caused in our area by stray dogs. They are so numerous that they strike one as constituting a whole legion. Alike during day and night, we encounter them at every turn both on the main road as well as in the cross roads. They literally fall on us, barking ferociously. Women and children appear to be their particular target of attack. Young boys and girls returning from school and housewives engaged in their respective errands, are frightened out of their wits as a result. Rabies, as you know, is a deadly malady, the cure for which is incredibly painful. Such being the case, I earnestly call upon the authorities to take necessary measures for putting an end to this alarming state of affairs by capturing all stray dogs infesting our locality and doing away with them.

Dear Daddy,
As the exam dates are fast approaching, I know that you are worried about my studies. Please don’t worry. I put in two hours of study every morning and three hours in the evening.
Two tests have already been conducted and I am glad to inform you that in these preparatory exams I have scored above 85% in all the subjects. Teachers are satisfied with my performance although they have warned me about careless mistakes. They have also given me some tips about time management.
I have set a time table for myself and hope to complete revision well in time. I have the confidence of doing well in the final exams.
Please convey my love to mummy. How is my little sister? Nothing more to pen now.
Yours affectionately

Dear Kavitha,
It’s such a long time since we have corresponded with each other. I suppose both of us were caught up in our world of assignments and tests. I think we must take some time off to catch up with each other.
On the 18th of this month, I’ll be celebrating my birthday at Ocean Pearl with a few of my friends and relatives. As it’s my 15th birthday, my parents want to make it very special for me. As you are a special friend, I invite you to be with us. The party starts at 6 p.m. and will end at 9 p.m. with dinner. I promise you that it will be fun. My sister has kept a number of party games ready. You can be a lucky winner too.
I’ll be very happy if you can make it with your family. Please inform Mom and Dad that I’ll be disappointed if they don’t make it.
One last word – please don’t get any gifts. Your presence will be my biggest present. Hope you won’t disappoint me. I’ll be grateful if you could drop a line confirming your presence by the 16th.
Love and best wishes.
Yours,
Suma

Dear Karan,
Hope this letter finds you in the best of health and fine spirits. Hope you have received my previous letter. How come you have not replied? Are you very busy?
My first term exams and assignments are over. My school is known for its discipline. So we finish everything according to the schedule. The teachers are also disciplinarians. However, they are approachable and help us in every way. That is why I’m very happy in my new school.
I’m not very happy with the food served in the hostel though. It’s very spicy and I find it very difficult to adjust. Often I end up eating cornflakes.
The best part about my school is the playground. We also have basketball and tennis courts. I play basketball whenever I’m free.
I can’t say the same about our library. It’s an old, dingy set-up in dire need of modernization. We have complained to the HM and he has promised us that the library would be renovated next year.
How is your school? Are you happy in your new school?
Do write a few lines in reply if time permits…
Warm regards
Jeevan

Dear Sir,
Enclosed please find a letter of complaint. I request you to publish it in your esteemed daily so that the authorities concerned will be quick in taking action. Till now whatever attempts We have made to get help have fallen on deaf ears. We hope that with the letter being published in your prestigious newspaper, the authorities will wake up and act.
Sir,
We are the residents of Vijayanagara Badavane. For the past eight months we have faced terrible problems with regard to. bus service to our locality. Earlier we had eight buses plying from and to our locality, to and from other points of importance. But, in June last year, for no reason at all the authorities reduced the number to four. Earlier if we had buses at intervals of 15 minutes, now we don’t get a bus in even 30 minutes. This has put working people and school going children to great hardship. The next bus terminus is five kilometers away and it’s impossible to go to that point to catch buses.
We have repeatedly written letters and even met the authorities to solve the problem, but no one seems to be bothered. We are all tax payers and we expect at least basic conveniences to be extended to us. If we are not given a hearing, we may have to think of taking the extreme step of going on hunger strike. I hope the authorities concerned will not test our patience further.
