Respected sir,
This is to bring your attention to the issues regarding security and safety of old aged people in the city. There has been increasing number of theft , robbery, and murder in the city and these elderly people are the main victims of their act.
They are getting helpless and intimidated and are living in terror of these mishaps. I request you to publish it in your newspaper so that more civil guards, cops, watchmen are provided at night patrolling for everyone's safety.
Thanking you,

Dear Sir: Problem of security for the elderly people in the city
I am writing this letter to express my deep concern over the issue of security of elderly people in our country. They have to face lots of harassment almost everywhere. At home they are not treated well by their own family members; and at public places their rights are also being violated.
Recently crimes against them have also increased; the number of crimes against them have gone up. They are the easy targets in incidents such as jewelry snatching, purse-snatching, robbing, etc.
Through the medium of your newspaper I appeal to concerned authorities and common people to take care of the elderly and provide them safety.
Thanking you.
Yours truly,
Navin Shukla
