This is a cause of concern because it is posing a threat to lives of pedestrians. Also, high-speed vehicles move on the muddy tracks which causes a lot of pollution. Last month, five pedestrians lost their lives and more than twenty were reported injured due to mishaps on the main roads. The increased pollution due to the vehicular movement on dirt tracks is causing respiratory trouble to the residents of the area. Several cases of asthma and brocho-related diseases are reported on a daily basis.I would like to request the authorities, through the prestigious columns of your publication, to get the required pavements on the sides of the main roads in the city. This will act as a great relief to pedestrians and residents of the area. Thanking you Yours sincerely Kalyan Sood

You are Bela / Baloo of Palanpuri. You recently visited a 'craft mela'. You were delighted to see the diversity of handicrafts, handlooms and cultural fabric of India. However, you were dismayed that not many people were there to encourage the artisans. Write a letter to the editor in 100-120 words, expressing your views on the situation and the need to support indigenous art and craft.
36, Sector 5 Palanpuri 20 May 2025 The Editor Times Now Palanpuri Subject: Need to support indigenous art and craft at the ongoing craft mela. Sir/Madam I, Baloo, a resident of Palanpuri, would like to bring your attention to the lack of visitors at the ongoing craft mela in the city. This is a cause of concern because it demotivates the craftsmen of our country. The craft mela is displaying a diversity of handicrafts, handlooms and cultural fabric of India. However, we need to support indigenous art and craft by visitng the mela and even buying the items on display. Several stall owners were dejected at the poor turnout of visitors and some did not even make a single sale at the mela. This will act as a deterrent and prevent them from continuing the rich crafts of our country. I would like to request you to highlight and popularize the craft mela through the prestigious columns of your publication, to get the required visitors. This will act as a great relief to the craftsmen who have put up stalls. Thanking you Yours sincerely Baloo

Sir/Madam I, Vaibhav, a resident of Guwahati, am a parent of a Grade X student. I would like to bring your attention to the declining writing habits among students in today's digital age. This is a cause of concern because it has adversely affected children's ability to express themselves effectively through writing. Today the children are increasingly dependant on internet resources. This trend has significantly impacted their academic performance. According to the latest data, a mere 10 percent students do written practice which has caused a decline in their writing abilities. I would like to request you to highlight the importance of written practice, through the prestigious columns of your publication. This will motivate the young minds to shift from online resources and start writing. Thanking you Yours sincerely Vaibhav.

B/20 Shastri Road Mumbai 20 March 2025 The Editor The Times of India Mumbai Subject: Marine Lines heavily polluted with plastic and garbage. Sir/Madam I, Manoj, a resident of Mumbai and a volunteer with 'Clean India', would like to bring your attention to the heavily polluted Marine Lines with plastic and garbage. This is a cause of concern because it is affecting the marine life and also the health of the residents. Marine Lines is a popular tourist spot and also a major source of livelihood for many fishermen. The increasing pollution is not only affecting the marine ecosystem but also posing a threat to the health of the people who consume seafood from this area. The plastic and garbage are also a major cause of concern for the environment as they are non-biodegradable and are accumulating in the ocean. I would like to request you to highlight this issue through the prestigious columns of your publication, to raise awareness about this issue. Environmental damage can be reduced through the help of NGOs, individuals and government organisations. NGOs can organise awareness campaigns and clean-up drives. Individuals can reduce their plastic consumption and segregate waste. Government organisations can implement stricter laws and provide proper waste management facilities. Thanking you Yours sincerely Manoj (Volunteer, Clean India)
