Subject: Need to introduce the odd-even scheme for vehicular traffic
Sir:
I am writing this letter to express my deep concern over the ever increasing vehicular pollution. The number of vehicles have been rising drastically in all the cities in India. It is estimated that approximately 217.7 tons of carbon monoxide is emitted in all the metropolitan cities. Similarly, 66.7 tons of hydrocarbons are released in the air every day. Other pollutants such as lead, Sulphur dioxide, and particulate matter are released into the air.
These pollutants cause many serious health hazards such as cough, nausea, headache, irritation of eyes, various bronchial and visibility problems. The Government must introduce odd even formula to overcome this problem. One day all vehicles with odd registration numbers should be allowed and the next day all even numbers. The Government must ban very old vehicles; the Government must also start providing electrical vehicles to people at subsidized cost. People must also adopt pollution free vehicles.
I appeal to the Government to implement odd-even scheme for vehicular traffic at the earliest. Kindly give my views enough space in the columns of your esteemed daily.
Thanking you.
Yours truly,
Nirmala

Subject: City under the attack of noise pollution
Sir
Through the columns of your esteemed newspaper, I wish to draw the attention of the concerned authorities towards the problem of rising noise levels and its subsequent harmful effects in the city.
Our ever-expanding city was already bearing the effects of air and water pollution, but recently, the people have also started to adopt the trend of enjoying their extravaganza with the loudest noise possible. Gone are the days when tourists used to enjoy the serenity of the city and calm themselves in the embrace of our quiet temples and mosques. Rather today, every block has some or other loudspeaker pumping their message in the atmosphere. Marriage processions and DJs during wedding spread the inharmonious music to everyone around, concerned or stranger, and disrupt the sleep and study periods of the elderly and students likewise.
If this menace is not put to control soon, our city shall perish in tourism and public health sector. An arrangement should be made to ensure marriages take place on the outskirts of the city. The police should act more responsibly and look into any complaint about noisy neighbours whenever they get a phone. I hope that after reading an article about the noise pollution of the city in your newspaper, the concerned authorities wake up from their slumber and take action accordingly.
Thank You
Yours sincerely
