Solution

Informal Letter

Parijat Colony,
Pune – 411051
20th March 2021

Dear Rima,

Hope this letter finds you in fine fettle and in high spirits. I believe you are well settled in your new school and your new friends are supportive. I recently happened to visit Lal Mahal, one of the historical places in Pune. It’s a beautiful place to be. It is said that Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj's father Shahaji Raje Bhosale, established the Lal Mahal for his wife Jijabai, and son. Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj stayed here for several years until he captured his first fort.
However, my enjoyment took a downturn when I saw that the site was poorly maintained. The monument is in ruins and the place is unclean. The safety of the monument is put at stake as there is no security personnel in place which led to vandalizing the historically relevant architecture. I have fulfilled my duty by writing a formal letter to the Municipal Commissioner wherein I have put forward my suggestions for maintaining the monument well. I hope this will work as a ray of hope and on my next visit things will be in better shape. Do plan a visit to my place soon. Next time, I’d like to go to Lal Mahal with you. Convey my regards to your parents and love to your little brother. I wish to see you soon.

Yours lovingly,
Saurabh
