Respected Sir,
I am writing this letter to inquire about the facilities available at Chikhaldara and to request some information regarding the same. I came across your advertisement in the local newspaper and was intrigued to know more about the tourist destination.
As an enthusiastic traveler, I am planning a visit to Chikhaldara during the upcoming holidays. However, the entry fee mentioned in the advertisement seems a bit steep. Therefore, I request you to kindly consider providing me with a concession in the entry fees for my visit.
Additionally, I would also like to know more about the accommodation facilities available in Chikhaldara. Kindly provide me with details regarding the types of accommodation, tariffs, and booking procedures. Moreover, I would like to know if food facilities are available on-site or if I should arrange for meals separately.
Lastly, I would also like to inquire if online booking facilities are available for both accommodation and food and if so, please provide me with the relevant links and instructions to make an online booking.
I would be grateful if you could provide me with the requested information at the earliest, as it will enable me to plan my visit accordingly. I am eagerly looking forward to experiencing the natural beauty of Chikhaldara.
Thank you for your time and consideration.
Yours Sincerely,
Anandi Jadhav

While reading a magazine advertising home products, Sakshi Aggarwal came across an advertisement for a stain remover called Dr. Clean. She decided to buy the product but it caused more harm than good. Complete the letter of complaint she writes to the company using appropriate words.

Dear Sir
I wish____________ to your notice the ridiculous product you have recently launched. I saw a TV advertisement for Dr. Clean and its ability _______ '99 top stains'. I bought the product and _________the least, I regret the money I spent on it.
You claim that your Dr Clean stain removal keeps clothes in wearable condition for a long time and thus helps reduce clothing costs. However, let me tell you what happened when I tried _________a stain left by tea from my shirt. _________the stain remover on the stain does seem to make the stain
fainter temporarily. But here is the problem: a little after you have sprayed Dr. Clean on the fabric, the area around the stain seems to melt away. Soon, there is no stain. In fact, there is a hole where the stain was!
Surely this is NOT what you meant when you advertised The stain will no longer be visible to the naked eye?
