1. Draft a Letter to the Editor of a Local Daily about the frequent power-cut/load shedding in your locality. [H.S.L.C. 2011, 2015]

To, 

The Editor 

The Assam Tribune

Dated: 18th Feb 2021

Sub: Frequent Load shedding / Power cut in our locality.

Sir, 

      Through this column of your esteemed daily I would like to draw the attention of the concerned authority towards a serious issue faced by our locality. Our locality has been suffering from the irregular power supply and the concerned authority is in sleeping mode.

      In the modern era, electricity is the driving fuel of the world and one cannot dream a single moment without electricity. But our locality has been regrettably experiencing unsteady and interrupting power supply for almost six months now. The side effects are quite precarious. Towards the evening the power cut shades darkness in our area boasting the courage of the anti-social elements. As the street lights also go out due to power cut, the roads become prone to accidents. The students are the worst sufferers. They have to light kerosene lamps or candlesticks to finish up their studies. As the matriculation and higher secondary final examinations are going on, the candidates are suffering a lot. Even during day hours, the erratic power supply has caused many problems like they cannot fill their water tanks, charge their mobile phones, etc.

       In spite of our continuous approach to the Electricity Board, the authority has not taken any action. Now the authority must replace the old transformer with a new one. They must ensure a steady power supply in our locality or the Board must be responsible for any evils caused by this irregular power supply. 

Yours Faithfully

2. Write a Letter to the Editor of your local English newspaper about frequent road accidents in your city.    [H.S.L.C. 2012]

To, 

The Editor 

The Assam Tribune

Dated: 18th Feb 2021

Sub: Frequent road accidents in our city.

Sir, 

      Through this column of your esteemed daily I would like to draw the attention of the concerned authority towards the problem of frequent road accidents in our city.

      For the last two months, the number of road accidents has been tremendously increasing. More than ten persons have died so far and more than thirty have injured in this period according to a media report. So definitely there is an overwhelming sense of fear amongst the residents of the city. Road accidents are mainly caused due to the harsh biking habits of the youth and drink and drive cases. Moreover, the roads are not wide enough to handle the increasing rush of motor vehicles during morning and afternoon hours. 

     The situation cannot be handled by the few numbers of traffic police the city has. So, the police department of motor vehicles should take the proper initiative to recruit more traffic police personnel. The roads should be widened. The youth must exercise great control while driving and parents should not hand over a motorbike to an under- eighteen boy.

Yours Faithfully

My dear friend Manab,

How are you? I am fine here. Time is very precious and a good time management skill is the prime ingredient of success. Today, I am going to write about my daily life so as to tell you how I manage my daily life. 

My daily life begins at 5 O'clock in the morning with the sound of birds chirping which alarms me that another busy day has just started. Soon after I leave my bed, I step out to a nearby open field to have some exercise and to feel the freshness of morning air. Coming back, I have a cup of tea or milk and sit on the study table. Then at 7 O’clock, I start my preparation for school and leave for school at around 8.30 AM. 

At school, we have a specific routine, and life at school goes on in a mechanical way. During break time I have some joyous activities with my friends. 

By the Afternoon the school is over and I have some time to spare with my neighborhood friends. Whenever I have any vacations, I like to visit my relatives and go for outing with my family. As time is more precious than any costly metal, I see to it that in my daily life, even a single moment is not wasted. 

Please write a few words about yours. Convey my regards to your parents and your brother also.

Your loving friend

My dear father,

I am glad to let you know that I am fine here in my hostel and my examination is going on gracefully. Hopefully, everyone is good and fine there at home. I am extremely sorry to inform you that my old set of uniform has become unworthy of use anymore. The white shirt has faded out and loosened its stitches. The blue trouser has become too short to use. 

               So, I shall need one thousand rupees to replace my old set of uniforms with a new one. Please send me the money at the earliest so that I can get rid of the inconvenience very soon. With love to you, Mother, and my brother Karan. 

Yours Affectionately

My dear friend Manab,

      How are you? I am fine here. Our examination is going on gracefully and it will be over by Monday next. I will breathe to relax when the examination will finally finish. I have a good plan regarding how I will spend my holidays until the results are declared. 

      After finishing the examination, I will have some outings. I will visit my maternal uncle’s home in Guwahati. I have a cousin named Harish. We two will wander about the city with my uncle or aunt. We will visit the zoo, the Kalakshetra, the science park, and many more other places. We will have fun in Accoland too. However, I will not spend the entire vacation there. I am thinking that after a week’s visit I will return home. Here I will take a computer coaching class, and join a career counseling program. You know, how beneficial they are in the modern competitive career world! 

    Please write a few words about yours. Convey my regards to your parents and your brother also.

Your loving friend

8. Write a letter to the Editor of a local daily expressing your concern over the incidents of crime against women in Assam. [H.S.L.C. 2019]

To, 

The Editor 

The Assam Tribune

Dated: 10th Feb 2021

Sub: Crime against women in Assam.

Sir, 

Through this column of your esteemed daily I would like to draw the attention of the concerned authority towards a serious issue faced by our state i.e. crime against women. 

In today’s world, the woman has a discrete role to play towards the growth and development of the country. In ancient days, women had to face many odd social conventions which curtailed the freedom of women. Even though modern society has opened its doors to women, yet the environment in which they have to survive isn't as much more favorable than the one they had ages back. 

        Reportedly there has been shocking growth of crimes against women in Assam. There is at least one news seen published in newspapers reporting such pathetic crimes. Everyday women have to be a subject of therapists, chain snatchers, acid attackers, and what not? Witchcraft is a myth. But, in Assam every year many women are lynched in suspect of witchcraft practice. Dowry death has become very common nowadays in Assam. Very unfortunately the numbers of cases registered of such crimes are increasing day by day. The interesting part here is that many offenses are not reported and go unheard.

       Society must wake up now. When they talk about equality, they must also provide an unpolluted society for women. The police force must be active and there must be more numbers of women police in the police department. There must be the installation of CCTV cameras in the prone areas. Society must remember that if women are not safe then society will also be at stake.

10. Write a Letter to the Editor of a local newspaper about Poor Road Condition of your Locality.

To, 

The Editor 

The Assam Tribune

Dated: 18th Feb 2020

Sub: Poor road condition of our locality. 

Sir, 

      Through this column of your esteemed daily I would like to draw the attention of the concerned authority towards a serious issue faced by our locality i.e. the poor road condition in our locality blocking connectivity with the outer world. 

     Roads connect us to the world outside. Hence it is said that roads lay the connectivity to development. But our locality is not fortunate enough to have good roads. The old roads are severely broken and have become drastic due to poor maintenance. During the rainy season, the roads are flooded and become muddy. The local residents are the worst sufferers. They have much difficulty going through this road to their workplaces. Even school-going students also have to face all the troubles. One cannot think of riding even riding a motorcycle smoothly. The poor road condition has led to accidents several times. 

    The root of this entire road problem is poor maintenance by the PWD. Our locality has tried to draw the attention of the authority in its several applications made to the authority. But all the efforts are in vain. So, the authority must consider the issue now and ensure graveling of the road. 

Yours Faithfully
