Sub: Poor Maintenance of Public Park in Kailash Colony
Through the columns of your esteemed newspaper, I would like to draw the attention of the
Municipal Corporation of Delhi towards the wretched condition of the public park in our
colony.
Our colony, Kailash Colony, was developed in the eighties, when much attention was not
given to green belts. It has only one public park which is in an abject state. It seems a
picture of utter neglect. The boundary wall is broken at several places. Consequently, stray
cows and dogs wander inside at will. Some undesirable elements and beggars sleep on the
benches at night. There is no watchman or gardener to look after its maintenance. People
are wary of going to the park early in the morning or late in the evening. Thus the park has
become a nuisance to the residents.
It is hoped that after reading our plight in the newspaper the authorities will be roused to
take remedial steps. So far all our appeals and letters to the authorities have failed to elicit
any response from them. Hope this letter does the trick.
Yours faithfully
Shaan

Sir
Sub : Replacement of 265 litres B.L.P. Refrigerator
We purchased a frost-free B.L.P. Refrigerator of 265 litres from you about six
months back, vide your Receipt No. C-1265 dated 10 January, 20XX. You provided
us a warranty letter for two years against any technical fault.
Having used it for about a month, we now find that the freezing section of the
refrigerator is not working properly. We are unable to get even a single eatable fresh
when kept in it. The summer season is in full swing and we are feeling great
inconvenience due to our defective refrigerator.
Under these circumstances, it is requested that the defective refrigerator may please
be replaced at your earliest in order to stop further inconvenience to us. It will be
appreciated if the new set is installed after proper testing.
Thanking you.
Yours faithfully,
Kumar Shanu
