Dear Mayur,
I hope you are in good health and relaxing after the first-term examinations. I’m sure you must have done well as this is a crucial year for all of us. My exams have just ended too, and I am looking forward to some well-needed rest.
I am writing this letter so that we all get to unwind during the festival of Diwali, especially since we would all have to gear up for our Board exams after that. Hence, you are warmly invited to celebrate Diwali with my family on Sunday, 22nd October.
The Laxmi poojan will be followed by a special lunch along with Diwali goodies such as Mathri, Kaju Katli, and your favourite Gujia. Post-lunch, we have organised a fun programme and an antakshari competition, with the elders of the family teaming up against the younger members.
Prasad, Nandini, Anita and Shreya too would be joining us along with their respective families.
Please do come along with your family. I’m eagerly awaiting your arrival.
Yours lovingly,
Shreyas

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?
