Formal Letter Sample 2 – Letter to the Editor about a road that needs repair

Sir,
I would like to bring to your notice that the people in and around Cheran Nagar have been
facing difficulties in travelling back and forth because of the bad condition of the roads there.
We have appealed to the Municipality, but there has not been any response on the issue so
far.
As our appeals to their office have had no effect, we believe that perhaps a mention in the
media would be of great help. Since the beginning of the last month, the roads in Cheran
Nagar have been almost impassable. The surface is badly broken up by the heavy rains, and
on a dark night, it is positively dangerous for vehicles to pass that way. Moreover, there are
heaps of road metal on both sides of the road, which leave very little room in the middle. The
residents of the area have been inconvenienced in this way for weeks.
The situation is becoming worse. There have been multiple accidents happening due to this
condition. I request you to highlight the seriousness of the matter in your newspaper so that
the road may be properly repaired without further delay.
Thanking You
Yours sincerely,

Dearest Maria,
I was so glad to hear from my mother that you are back home after the trip. Hope you had a safe
and enjoyable trip. I have been waiting to hear all about the trip from you.
Since this was the first time you have been to a foreign land, I guess every little bit of the trip was
as exciting as you expected it to be. I have heard from my friends residing there that the place is
extremely beautiful and that the people there are very endearing. However, I was worried when I
knew that there were a few bomb blasts during your stay there. Hope all of you there were safe. I
hope everything else was fine except for this.
I had spoken to your mother earlier, and she told me that you would be coming home after two
weeks. I saw your pictures on Instagram as well. I can’t wait to meet you and hear all your
stories. Waiting eagerly for your reply.
Your loving cousin,
Sarah
Dear Surya,
Hope you are keeping well, and everyone at home is keeping safe and healthy. It has been a
long time since all of us have met, so I was thinking we could all meet up. I have planned to have
a get-together next month. I would love to discuss more about it.
All of us could meet on Friday evening and stay over the weekend at a resort in Munnar. The
climate in Munnar is great and it will be a good stress reliever. We could also go around the
tourist spots if everyone is interested. If you are ready, we could talk to the others also. I will visit
you next weekend to discuss more on this.
Awaiting your reply and hoping to meet you soon.
Love,
Sreya

Dear Sreya,
It is extremely thoughtful of you to plan a get-together for all of us. I wish I could join you, but I
am sorry to say that I have a project starting next month, and it would not be possible for me to
be there. If there is any way of preponing the get-together to any time before the month-end, I
can definitely make it to our gathering.
I hope we can reschedule the get-together and not miss the chance to meet up. Waiting to hear
from you.
With love,
Surya
