Subject: Pig Menace

Sir/Madam,

I wish to draw the kind attention of the authorities concerned and the public in general to the pig menace spread almost in every town and city.

We all are well acquainted with PM Modi’s most popular campaign ‘Swachh Bharat Abhiyan. Newspapers update about the progress of this ‘Abhiyaan’ from time to time. No doubt, the people of the country are well-motivated to make it successful by their efforts.

But, in my humble opinion, we cannot ignore the problems caused by pigs in town and cities. They come in a platoon and spread dirt here and there. They feed themselves on dirty water and the eatables thrown in some empty plots. I know that some people are still uneducated about the ‘Swachhata Abhiyan. That is the reason why pigs keep on wandering in the localities. They not only spread dirt but also diseases through mosquitoes. When a mosquito bites a pig, it carries a very dangerous virus with it. After that, it bites human beings and spreads the disease called ‘Japanese encephalitis’. Moreover, pigs make their surroundings dirty. They should be kept in a pigsty and not be allowed to wander about here and there.

I hope that my views would certainly catch the attention of the authorities concerned and deal with the problem immediately. People are also requested not to throw eatables here and there.

Regards

Maneesh

Formal Letter on the improper use of loudspeakers in general (To The Editor)

Write a letter to the editor of a National Daily highlighting the improper use of loudspeakers in general.

Subject: Improper Use of Loudspeakers

Dear sir/Madam,

Through the columns of your esteemed newspaper, I wish to draw the attention of the public and the authorities concerned to the noise pollution caused by the improper use of loudspeakers. I hope you will surely provide some space to my views.

The loudspeaker is one of the gifts given to us by science. These are used to magnify the sound so that it reaches human ears at some comfortable pitch.

But, we all are well aware of how this wonderful gift of science is being misused everywhere in our country.

The morning begins not with the chirping of birds, the crowing of a cock, but it begins with the blaring sound of the loudspeakers installed at the top of the buildings of worshipping places. In cities, it may be less in practice, but in villages, there is a lot of noise pollution. During the day also, we find much misuse of loudspeakers. At night, if there is a religious function, a marriage, and a reception party in some locality, then, no one can sleep there properly till midnight.

No one cares for the students who are to study. No one cares for the children, the old men and women, and the patients who are to take rest and sleep. There is a law for curbing the menace created by the improper use of loudspeakers. But nobody bothers about it.

I hope the points raised here are relevant in this context and these would certainly stir the sleeping conscience of the public in general and the authorities concerned.

Regards,

Mukesh Ahluwalia

The Rise In Prices (Paragraph-writing)

 The Rise In Prices

The rise in price of all the necessary goods is a matter of concern (worry) not only for the poor, but also for the people of the middle class in developing countries. Usually the people blame the government for not curbing (restricting/controlling) the sudden spurt (rise) in prices of the commodities (things) of daily use. Some of the reasons for the rise in prices are not under the direct control of the Govt. But the political parties often raise issues like this to push the Govt. at its back-foot. The ruling party cannot escape bearing the brunt (impact) of such flaring (erupting) situations. The Govt. will have to maintain the balance between the demand and supply, at least, of the commodities of daily use. If the shortage of a certain commodity is due to some man-made causes, then the Govt. must stop black-marketing and hoarding of that thing. The culprits (the wrong-doers) must be punished severely. If the shortage is due to some natural calamity (disaster), the government must import that thing from a foreign country. In case, the prices of the perishable goods have gone up because of the rise in petro-prices, then the government should decrease tax that is levied on the sale of petrol and diesel. So the state as well as the central governments must cooperate with each other to keep the prices of the necessary goods under control.

Need For Communal Harmony (Writing Paragraphs)

1. Need For Communal Harmony

India is the country where people having different religions, castes, cultures live together in complete harmony. They speak different languages and wear different clothes in different styles. The spirit of brotherhood and nationality binds them together in one whole. But, unfortunately, this communal harmony is sometimes broken temporarily by some anti-social and anti-national elements. This temporary phase of communal disturbance suspends the feelings of brotherhood and affection for one another. Evil forces seem to win over the good forces. But there is always a victory of the good forces over the evil ones. People of different communities forget about their past enmity and start living together once again with the same brotherhood and harmony. Communism is always dangerous for any country. Some internal and external forces are always at work to spread the bitterness of communism in people’s minds. So there is a dire need of becoming aware of the anti social forces. These forces are backed by some foreign countries that are jealous of India’s progress and development. So we must not allow them to be successful in their nefarious designs.

Importance of Blood Donation

Importance of Blood Donation

Blood donation is the best kind of service done to human beings. Some people are well aware about the value of donating blood, but there are many who are still unaware of this fact. Sometimes, blood is needed for their close relative or any of their family members. Then they come to know the real value of blood. After that, they run from pillar to post in search of blood or any donor of blood. So blood donation is very important for all of us. Sometimes, a patient may need blood of a rare group. In that case, one can easily approach a nearby blood bank and procure it immediately. So, the students of schools and colleges should be made well aware about the importance of blood donation. There is a misunderstanding in the minds of some students or people that blood donation makes the donor the victim of some fatal disease. This is not true. The donor is properly examined by the doctor present there to ascertain if the donor is fit to donate blood or not. Blood is also tested before it is administered in the body of the patients. Nor is it true that one becomes weak after donating blood. One can regain the same amount of blood as is donated within twenty four hours. So we should always be ready to donate blood.

The Annual Day Celebrations in My School

The Annual Day Celebrations in My School

We all rejoice in celebrations whenever they occur in our life. We do not let even a single moment go waste while celebrating any important day or occasion. The Annual Day celebrations in my school bring lots of enjoyment to every student and even teachers of my school. The preparations begin two weeks before the day. The Annual Day of my school was celebrated on May 07 this year. It was really  a gala day for all. The parents sat in the auditorium well before time. The participants were ready to listen to the call of the announcer. The Chief Guest was ushered in to occupy the seat. There was a loud clapping from the audience. The Principal came on the stage and welcomed the chief guest and other invitees. He read out the annual speech also. After that,  a prayer was sung by girls and it was followed by a few entertaining items. The Chief Guest was invited to give away the prizes and deliver a speech. He appreciated the Principal, the staff and the management of school for the progress they made in a very short span of time. He also announced a donation of Rs one lakh for the school. The function ended at 1 p.m. sharp.

‘Early to Bed And Early to Rise: Makes a Man Healthy, Wealthy and Wise.’ ( Paragraphs for the Middlers)

4.   ‘Early to bed and early to rise: makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise.’

This proverb signifies that early rising is very beneficial for all of us. It is natural because all the creatures on the earth also wake up from their night’s sleep early before the sun-rise. In 'Aayurveda', the habit of early-rising has been emphasized to keep our body fit and healthy. If we get up early in the morning, we may accrue so many benefits for our health. An early riser may go out for walk and jogging. He or she can do meditation, yoga and other physical exercises. By doing meditation and introspection, we become wiser than before. We become wealthy in the sense that our health is also our wealth.  If we are healthy, then and only then we can do hard work and be wealthy. A farmer may tend his cattle and he may go to his fields to do other activities. A house-maker can do so many activities of the house early in the morning. She can prepare breakfast for school going children. She can also finish several other pending tasks. A student can revise his or her lessons and can complete pending home-work. In this way the day becomes long for an early riser. So the proverb ‘Early to bed and early to rise: makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise’ is quite appropriate for us.
