Dear Rani,
How are you? In spite of being in touch on Whatsapp, I have decided to write to you because I want to write in detail about my new passion. Do you know something? I have taken to the hobby of glass painting! I know that you can’t believe it because when I was your classmate in the VIII Standard, I was not at all artistic. I was out and out a sportsperson.
But, of late, whenever I have some free time that I spend indoors, I sit and paint all the glass bottles that mom has washed and kept. It is not very difficult and not very expensive either. When you place the finished products at strategic points in the house, the house looks very elegant indeed!
My sister also got interested in the hobby and now my neighbour’s children come to me to learn. They pay me a nominal amount and with that amount, I buy the paints that I need for my own artistic work.
Aren’t you surprised as to how I achieved proficiency in this? Thanks to the internet! Everything is available on the internet. There are effective demonstrations on YouTube. The digital world is really fascinating! If you want to give it a try, I will share the links with you. There are many; but not all are that good.
What are your activities now? Do write to me when you find some time. It feels good to go back to the old method of letter writing.
Lots of love.
Nanditha
You are planning to celebrate a festival in your house. Write a letter to your cousin asking her/him to come over with some things that you need for the arrangements.

Dear Bimala,
Glad to know that you have come down from the U.S. Very happy that you will be here till Ugadi. This time I am planning to celebrate Ugadi on a grand scale. I want all the family members to come together as they welcome the Hindu new year. Now that you are here, can I ask for your help? I want to decorate the house in a traditional manner.
I am planning to have rangoli of different types. I want rangoli powder, grain and flower petals. I know that you are very artistic. I remember you winning prizes in your student days. Can you come home a day earlier and decorate the courtyard with rangoli? If you cannot, don’t worry.
I can make other arrangements. But, if you can, your responsibility increases as I want you to get all the items that you need for the rangoli. Whether you can put the rangoli or not, make sure that you will surely be with us on the day of Ugadi.
Looking forward to your visit,
Your loving cousin,
Shanthi

Dear Kavitha,
It’s such a long time since we have corresponded with each other. I suppose both of us were caught up in our world of assignments and tests. I think we must take some time off to catch up with each other.
On the 18th of this month, I’ll be celebrating my birthday at Ocean Pearl with a few of my friends and relatives. As it’s my 15th birthday, my parents want to make it very special for me.
As you are a special friend, I invite you to be with us. The party starts at 6 p.m. and will end at 9 p.m. with dinner. I promise you that it will be fun. My sister has kept a number of party games ready. You can be a lucky winner too. I’ll be very happy if you can make it with your family. Please inform Mom and Dad that I’ll be disappointed if they don’t make it.
One last word – please don’t get any gifts. Your presence will be my biggest present.
Hope you won’t disappoint me. I’ll be grateful if you could drop a line confirming your presence by the 16th.
Love and best wishes.
Yours,
Suma
Write a letter to your friend describing the annual day celebrations in your school.

Dear Krithi,
How have you been? Sorry for not writing earlier. I was busy with my Annual Day celebrations.
We take a lot of trouble over our Annual Day celebrations. This time too we had a grand celebration. Can you guess who our chief guest was? You will probably be amused to know that we had comedian Kapil Sharma as our chief guest. He regaled the audience with his witty remarks. The speech had a good message too for the students. The entertainment programme was too good. We had a dance drama on the theme of light as this year is the International Year of Light.
I’m glad to inform you that I received five prizes, three in academics and two in extra-curricular. They gave us cash prizes and I’m richer by Rs. 1000!
What news from your side? When is your Annual Day? Will you be doing anything special? Do write to me about all the details. Bye for now.
Yours,
Anitha
Write a complaint to The Commissioner, BBMP, Bangalore, about the bad condition of roads in your locality.

Dear Sir,
Subject: Request for road repair.
I am a resident of Cox Town, Bangalore. I wish to bring to your notice the poor condition of the roads in our area.
Almost all the roads in our area have developed deep ditches. It is very difficult to drive, whatever might be the means of conveyance. During rains in particular, water collects in the ditches. It continues to stagnate there unless it gets dried by the sxm. These ditches consequently have become breeding grounds for mosquitoes.
The matter has been brought to the notice of the local ward office but no action has been taken so far.
I request you to resolve the matter at the earliest.
Thank you.
Yours faithfully,
Solomon David

Dear Sir,
Enclosed please find my views on the rash driving of vehicles in Bengaluru. I am of the opinion that there should be awareness programmes regarding this and as the first measure towards this I have put down my views. I request you to publish the same in your esteemed daily.
Thank you!
Yours faithfully,

Driving licence is given to people who exhibit their ability to control a vehicle, following all the traffic rules. But, the rash driving that is seen in every part of the city nowadays makes me wonder whether 75% of the drivers deserve the licence at all! Driving is not just an act. It is also a tact. It has both physical and psychological aspects to it.
None of us can think of ourselves as the most powerful beings the minute we are behind a wheel. We must remember that rash driving jeopardises not only the life of the driver but also of a whole lot of innocent people. Rash driving should be dealt with very stringently and heavy fine should be imposed on the defaulters. None can play with safety.
