Q.1. Accidents in big cities is a common phenomenon. Unfortunately, hardly anyone comes to the rescue of road victims because of fear of harassment by the police. Now that the Supreme Court has issued guidelines that people who take road victims to a hospital will not be questioned or detained, there is no reason why bystanders / passersby should hesitate to help road victims and thus, discharge their duty as responsible citizens. Write a letter in 100-120 words to the editor of a national daily requesting him to make people aware of Supreme Court guidelines and urge them to help people in distress. You are Shom / Shobha, 24, Raj Nagar, Kanpur.

Subject: Help accident victims

Sir

I shall be obliged if you allow me a little space in the column of your esteemed newspaper to voice my concern over the unattended accident victims.
Accidents in big cities are now becoming a common phenomenon. Sadly, most passers-by do not come forward to help the accident victims. They have their own fears, mainly the fear of police harassment. But now the Supreme Court has issued guidelines that people who take road victims to a hospital will not be questioned or detained. So now the by-standers should not hesitate to discharge their duty as responsible citizens. Now they can help people in distress and be an example of a good citizen.
A powerful editorial from your pen, will go a long way in creating awareness among people and urging them to help the road victims.
Yours Sincerely
Shobha

Sir

I would like to inform you that in our area i.e., Raj Nagar the bus service is very poor. Very few buses ply through our area which creates a lot of inconvenience to the people. The area is a bit away and residents need to go to every part of the city. Therefore, you are requested to arrange more buses in this area so that the people do not face the problem of transportation.

I hope you will take some action and do the needful as soon possible.

Thanking You

My dear Amit

I was shocked to learn about the untimely death of your mother. She was quite fit when I saw her last month. I never thought that her end was so near.

She was a very noble lady. She was kind to all and was a lovable mother. I still remember she used to take a lot of interest in your studies. She always looked upon me as her own son.

May God grant peace to the departed soul!

With deep sympathies.

Yours sincerely,
