Dear Vedant,
I hope this letter finds you in the pink of health. I apologise for not having written to you for so long.
I recently had the pleasure of undertaking the Kalsubai Trek, and I am very excited to share my experience. Kalsubai, at an elevation of 1646 meters, is the highest point in Maharashtra.
We chose to take the train since railway tickets proved to be cost-effective. We set out on our journey on Saturday morning and reached Kasara Railway station by 7 a.m. Local taxis ferrying trekkers to the base village, Bari, were readily available. The trekking trail was about 6.4 km long and popular among trekkers. Iron ladders were built along the vertical hill slopes for a safe ascent. Owing to the monsoon showers, the path grew trickier as we climbed, with slippery rocks and limited visibility.
However, the sheer joy of trekking and experiencing nature in all its glory was worth every minute. The lush green paddy fields, the waterfalls, and the Bhandardhara Dam left us mesmerised.
We reached a peak after 4 hours of trekking and were spellbound by the magnificent view from the top. It felt like we were at the top of the world! The light drizzle and the cold winds added to the joy of the experience.
Knowing your love for adventure, I am sure you would enjoy such an experience. Hopefully, we can plan something together soon.
Yours faithfully,
Rahul.

Sir,
I request you to publish the following letter in your daily to address an important issue which needs immediate redressal.
During week ends motorcyclists are seen racing on the East Coast Road and the Old Mahabalipuram road of Chennai. The amateur racers are risking their own lives and of the public as well. They are fearless and irresponsible, not knowing the price of human lives. Risking others and their lives for their pleasure is highly condemnable.
Even school students indulge in such activities and cause fatal accidents. The racers have started occupying the lanes and streets of busy localities. As such, the violation of traffic rules often results in loss of young lives. Such reckless riders who violate traffic rules should be punished severely.
As a responsible citizen of the society, I request the authorities concerned to take appropriate measures to put an end to this menace.
Yours truly,
Srivatsav
