Dear Rahul
I hope you are in pinkish health. I am also fine here. The purpose of my writing this letter is to tell you about my last visit to a village in Bihar.
Last week, I visited a village in Bihar. I was shocked to discover that people are ignorant of the basic health and hygiene principles which are essential to stay healthy and fit. They are very indifferent to even the cleanliness of the surroundings. Litter was lying all over the place. The drains were not covered and were overflowing. Children were eating the scraps of the leftover food from the litter from the dustbin nearby. The sight was heart-rending. People took bath in the drain water in which even the stray animals were bathing themselves. Their homes were nothing but a mere four walls constructed of mud and straw. There were no hospitals to treat the sick and destitute people. I felt sorry for their plight. I hope government and NGOs take the necessary steps and clean the place and also educate the masses about the need of personal hygiene.
I pray their plight and situation improves soon. Pay my regards to your mom and dad.
Your friend
Jatin
