Dear Mother,

How are you?  I hope you are good there. I am fine here and doing good. Today while I pass by the road and I saw a child who met with an accident in front of my eyes and everyone gathered around him and no one was helping him to get up all of them were taking photos and selfie with him and posting it on the social media.  He was struggling to get up then suddenly I went and helped him to get up and I took him to the hospital and He was fine with minimal injuries. But how come a people can do this just staring at an accident victim and none of them were serious. If this keeps on going on we people will lose our humanity. I just want to share this with you mom. Love you mom.

Yours lovingly,
Kalpana/Kiran Shah

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
