Formal Letter 1

Write a letter to the district magistrate complaining about the congestion caused by street vendors and suggesting suitable solutions to the problem so as to satisfy the vendors and to avoid the congestion.

Before we begin:

  • This is only a sample for help, there might be other points and aspects that one can add or remove.
  • stick to the margin
  • leave a line when changing paragraph
  • construct to the point sentences
  • leave in the comment section- suggestion or topic for essay/letter

24 Downing Street
House No. 4
Palampur-600210

8th May, 2020

The District Magistrate
Palampur Urban
Palampur-10

Sir,
Congestion on the Street

This is in regard to the scarcity of space on the streets. The vendors have been stalling the smooth to and fro of the public as well as vehicles. This has caused a lot of trouble for the general people. 

The phenomenon has been observed for quite some time now, especially on 24 Downing Street. They spread their goods and items on the pavement for sale. It becomes difficult to walk and at times people bump into each other. From newspapers to jewellery to fruits and vegetables and handkerchief and caps, there are carts selling all types of things.

It would be great if you can intervene and suggest a suitable place for the vendors and hawkers to sell their good. Alternatively, they can be asked to occupy the crossing or the Chowk only from 4:00 pm to 7:00 pm in the evening when people leave their houses for a walk. That way they can approach the customers better and not be an impediment during school/working hours.

I shall be grateful if this can be dealt at the earliest. I look forward to hearing from you.

Yours faithfully,
Kevin Portman

How to Write a Good Essay in 10 Steps

Essay Writing is an integral part of examinations. It is generally meant to test the ability to think and structure the thoughts systematically. I will explain here how to approach a topic and accomplish it with ease. Once you learn the ‘what’, the ‘how’ becomes a piece of cake. Essays can be of variant types and styles. For now, let’s categorise it under four heads: a) Argumentative Essays - I find this the simplest option and most marks fetching. This is the type where you are supposed to choose a side and write either for or against the motion. b) Narrative Essays - Such a topic asks you to narrate an incident. The best way to approach it is the ‘5Ws and an H’ formula. That is, frame your article by asking yourself W hat, W here, W hen, W hy, W ho and H ow related to the incident that you will be writing about. c) Descriptive Essays - The reader or examiner expects you to describe something or somewhere, it may be an experience or a visit to any place. d) Reflectiv...
