Letter to Editor regarding pollution due to two and three-wheelers. Sir, This is to draw your kind attention about the pollution which is ever-increasing and spreading tentacles of asthma and other respiratory problems. The government should not turn a blind- eye to smoke emanated by the two-wheelers and especially the three-wheelers, which virtually burn the eyes to a near blindness. These vehicles are openly flouting the traffic pollution rules while the...

Letter regarding too much importance on “Cricket Betting”. Sir, As a responsible citizen of this country, where cricket is a way of life and cricketers are considered to be “National Heroes”; I find it very ridiculous and disgusting that the media is overplaying its role in the case of “Cricket-betting”.

Write a letter to the newspaper about the commercialisation of education. Sir, I would like to draw your attention towards the mushroom growth of institutes in Delhi. This is quite apparent in West Delhi, where every Tom, Dick, Harry is starting an education center without any proper infrastructure and proper facilities. The same can be said about the schools.
