The Postmaster
General Post Office
Amritsar
Sir
I am very sorry to report that my letters are not properly delivered to me. Ram Lal, the postman of our area, is very careless. Often he comes very late. He does not do his duty honestly. On the outer wall of my house, I have put up a letter-box. It bears my name. But the postman never puts my letters into this box. He often throws them in at the gate. Sometimes he hands them to the children in the street. Many important letters are thus lost. Kindly look into the matter and take suitable action.
Yours faithfully
Ram

The Health Officer
Nagar Nigam
Patiala
Sir.
I beg to draw your attention to the insanitary condition of our street. Mainly poor people live in this area. Perhaps, that is why, no Sanitary Inspector has ever visited it. There are very few proper drains here. These drains are not cleaned regularly. They are never flushed with water. No dustbins have been provided. People throw all their refuse here and there. Flies and mosquitoes buzz about. All this gives this street a very dirty look. I hope you will surely take suitable action to improve the sanitary condition of our street.
Thanking you
Yours faithfully
Amar Singh.
