Sir,
I shall be highly obliged if you allow me a little space in your esteemed daily to narrate the problem of frequent theft at our locality for a couple of months. It has been almost six months that the commmon people of our locality can not sleep or goout at night due to the problem of theft. Every other house of our native area is affected by this problem.Many people have already lost their valuable gods including jwellery, TV sets, cash etc. A number of cases have been registered but the real culprit has not been detected till now. Police patrolling at night is a common phenomenon, but of no use. A delegation of senior citizen met the local MLA and the DC, still the result is not satisfactory.
I, therefore, urge you publish this letter in your esteemed daily so that the concerned hgher authority of the govt take a look at the seriousness of the problem and take some necessary action. I hope you would respond to this request for the greater intersest of our locality.
Yours etc
Mr.XYZ

The Assam Tribune
Chandmari, Guwahati
Date-10 june'2025
Sir,
I shall be highly obliged if you allow me a little space in your esteemed newspaper to narrate the problem of bad or deplorable road condition at different parts of our locality. The common people of this area have been suffering from this problem for almost ten months. The problem has been made serious by the frequenly passing loaded tractors, dumper trucks and other heavy vehicles during rainy season.
The road condition is so serious that at any moment fatal accidents may occur. Considering this issue we approached the local administration but of no use..
Hence, I urge you to publish this news in your daily so that the concerned govt. authority may take a look into the problem and take some urgent measures.
Your's etc
