Dear Manish,
Hi! Hope you are fine. How is everyone at home? I know I am writing to you after a long time as even I was busy with exam preparations.
I am writing this letter to share some information about Blood Donation which I have been doing since two years. Donating is a specialty of Indian culture and as many of us donate several things even donating blood is one of them. Donating blood does not impact your body and this negative mindset of people. In fact, donating blood is good for health as our human body produces fresh blood regularly.
As you know this day, there are a lot of accident cases and emergencies where people need blood. We all can come together and help a few of them. Our society is organizing a Blood Donation Camp on 05th March, 2019 at F.C. Road, Pune. The time is 10:00 am to 06:00 pm. So, I want you to participate in this Blood Donation Camp and donate blood. Be a part of this good cause. Remember the date, time & venue mentioned.
Please give my regards to Uncle and Aunt. Give my love to sonu.
Yours Loving,
Dipesh.

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
